Prosser","doi":"10.1080/03055477.2018.1524699","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/03055477.2018.1524699","url":null,"abstract":"of Troy House is bleak’ (p. 61). If the purpose of the book is to draw attention to the architectural and historical significance of Troy, thereby providing a mandate for its future preservation, it has been an unequivocal success. The biography of the building presented by Benson advances understanding of the structure and site beyond all other previously published accounts. The work proceeds through seven interrelated chapters, including sections on the landscape setting, ownership history, architectural development, designed gardens, walled garden and built features within the demesne. This approach takes the study of the house beyond the sphere of architectural description, linking the building to the identity of its owners and, importantly, taking account of the house’s broader estate landscape setting — extending to the gardens, farmstead, deer park and estate facilities including the water mill, brick kiln, keeper’s cottage and conduit house. The methodology employed by the author is refreshingly multipronged for a house history, taking into account an array of sources including: estate archives (inventories, wills, correspondence, sale catalogues and estate maps); Welsh praise poetry; old photographs; oral history; archaeological finds; resistivity surveys; and visual and material culture (extending to an early painting of the hall by Hendrick Danckerts dated 1672). This broad range of material is well handled, allowing the author to chart a course through a complex building and ownership history. Benson shows how Troy developed into a site of significance during the fifteenth century, as part of the substantial landholdings amassed by Sir William ap Thomas (d. 1445) of Raglan, whose heir, Sir William Herbert (1423–69), was created 1st Earl of Pembroke. The Troy estate crystallised under the Herberts and remained fastened to the family interest for a period of some 150 years, including during the highs and lows associated with loyalty to the Yorkist cause. During the sixteenth century Troy was established as a residence of junior members of the family; a hall house which was an important site of local office-holding and administration under Sir William Herbert of Troy (d. 1524), its prominence confirmed by a visit from Henry VII in 1502. The sub-heading chosen for the book — ‘a Tudor estate through time’ — does not do justice to the author’s achievements in grounding the long-term architectural development of the site within a continually changing historical context. Between 1584 and 1600 Troy was purchased by the Somerset family and became part of a much broader, multinational complex. Benson demonstrates some of the ways in which the family utilised Troy as an expression of their status and identity, linking aspects of its function and appearance to the Catholic sympathies of the family (pp. 44–7) and a European tour of 1611–12 (pp. 47, 98–9). For the first time, Benson identifies Robert Warren as the architect commissioned to undertake","PeriodicalId":54043,"journal":{"name":"Vernacular Architecture","volume":"49 1","pages":"161 - 162"},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2018-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/03055477.2018.1524699","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42759055","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"艺术学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Deftly chosen examples of particular clergy and their houses allow valuable glimpses into the way in which the buildings’ design and use changed as the parson’s role changed. There is a welcome emphasis on the challenges that increasing and rapid urbanisation posed to a church organised on the parochial model, and the church’s attempts to meet them. Butterfield’s All Saints Margaret Street complex of church and vicarage combined on a tight urban site and the group of church, vicarage and school at St Mark’s Swindon as part of the new railway town are both well illustrated. The role of some of the leading Victorian architects, and of the Anglican Church’s significant impetus to the Gothic Revival, is also recognised. Indeed, carefully selected and well-reproduced illustrations — historical photographs, plans and documents as well as good contemporary colour photography — in a modestly priced publication is another virtue of this account. The indelible picture that emerges is of the immense variety of the parsonage in England, exploding the myth that the archetypical parsonage is the genteel residence portrayed in the pages of a Jane Austen novel. Poor clergy in very modest houses were common until the reforms of the twentieth century as the old patrician order faded, though not quickly enough to leave children of the vicarage, like the author or the present reviewer, without memories of freezing cold houses and parents struggling to cope in houses far too large to run on modest clerical stipends. As late as the 1970s my parents moved from a moderately sized vicarage (Kidlington, Oxfordshire, a medieval house with an extension by G. E. Street) to a twenty-roomed monster (Banbury, Oxfordshire, an Elizabethan front block facing the town, behind which the Victorian rector had added a vast pseudo-medieval hall range), which took the whole of my father’s salary just to pay for the oil-fired central heating in his first winter; no wonder he soon persuaded the diocese to sell up. The decline of the Anglican Church and modern patterns of ministry in radically changed circumstances meant the sale of historic parsonages, which began in earnest after the Great War (six hundred had been sold by 1930 and a further seven hundred by 1939), accelerated rapidly in the later twentieth century, with modern clergy houses now indistinguishable from their neighbours. It is much to be hoped that this book will be a spur to greater research into this neglected house type: it is not too late to quarry the rich building and architectural history the English parsonage represents, and most of them — better furnished, maintained and heat","PeriodicalId":54043,"journal":{"name":"Vernacular Architecture","volume":"49 1","pages":"165 - 166"},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2018-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/03055477.2018.1522582","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45903011","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"艺术学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
