Description

The Leonard Stokes Directoryincludes chapters about the life and work of Leonard Stokes and a gazetteer of more than 120 commissions, most with colour photograph and black and white illustrations.

Jan Wards interest in Leonard Stokes was kindled many years ago as a young planning technician for the local authority, when she visited Littleshaw - the house Stokes built for himself at Woldingham, high up on the North Downs of Surrey - to put up a site notice. In writing the book she has travelled the country photographing his buildings that still exist and the sites of some that dont. His more famous buildings, in addition to Littleshaw, which is heralded by many as a fme example of Arts and Crafts architecture, include St Clares Church at Liverpool, additions to Emmanuel College, Cambridge and Downside School in Somerset together with Minterne House for Lord Digby in Dorset.
