Books by Clare Hartwell

Full of memorable and surprising buildings, Nottinghamshire is a county that rewards close investigation. Country houses such as Wollaton Hall, Bunny Hall and Newstead Abbey are explored, as are the great medieval churches.

Chetham's School and Library is an exceptional example of 15th century collegiate architecture. First built as a lodge for the clergy serving Manchester cathedral, it survived the turbulence of the Reformation and eventually became Humphrey Chetham's charity school and free public library.

A comprehensive guide to the buildings of Cheshire in their variety, from Pennine villages to coastal plains and seaside resorts.

The landscapes range from the shores of Morecambe Bay and the wild Forest of Bowland in the north to the coastal flatlands and Pennine mill towns in the south. Lancaster, the historic county town, boasts some of the finest Georgian buildings in northern England. This book features numerous maps and color photographs of the area.
