The photographs mostly show exteriors of rural or small town Georgian houses of some pretension ranging in size between four and seven bays, including manor houses, rectories, vicarages, and farmhouses. There a few interiors, press cuttings, sales particular cuttings and colour images. There are no examples of urban or terrace housing or large country houses.
