Dublin's Victorian Houses by Peter Pearson

The sturdy redbrick houses of Victorian Dublin are one of its unsung treasures. Although they were designed for lifestyles of another era, from prosperous professional to modest clerks and artisans, these solidly built homes have proved marvellously adaptable and attractive. This pioneering book explores how the townships spread, how the houses were built, who lived in them and how and finally explains in detail how they can be sensitively adapted to our modern lifestyle, from repairing sash windows and defective plumbing to recreating the central glory of the Victorian room, the fireplace with its handsome surrounds.
