Here are three recent book purchases. The first was bought for me by Sue and is an illustrated book of paintings and watercolours showing the Victorian ideal of a country cottage. Victorian Cottages (part of the Country Series) by Andrew Clayton Payne. The book is full of inspiration for future models.
Secondly a real find - again a gift from Sue who has a way of finding these fantastic little gems. The Hutchinson Dictionary of Ancient and Medieval Warfare. It was picked up for just 50p.
Finally a book found by me in a charity book shop, Traditional Houses of Rural France by Bill Laws. The book is jam-packed with colour illustrations of beautifully photographed rural houses. Just my type of book. This one cost just £1.00.

Nice. The front cover of the Traditional Houses of Rural France Looks inspirational already
I would happily spend a couple of days with those books as well!
I'm getting that book. Would be good if there were similar books for Germany - might have to trawl eBay.de for a few...
Cheers
Would be good if there were similar books for Germany.
Try Hessenpark Open Air Museum.

It's a great day out and the museum guides will give you loads of inspiration.
