Nikolaus Pevsner described Berkshire as ‘half home county, half West Country’. This revised and comprehensive guide follows its historic boundaries, including the large area transferred to Oxfordshire in the 1970s. The variety of architecture is, in consequence, broad and remarkable. Berkshire’s houses range from intriguing early timber-framed dwellings to the splendours of Windsor Castle, at once England’s greatest fortress and finest royal palace, through Georgian, Victorian and Arts-&-Crafts mansions of exceptional diversity and richness.
