Elizabethan I

Picture
The Elizabethan era, the "golden era" of English history, produced many marvels. One of them is the very attractive black and white half-timbered houses which still survive in many parts of the country. Since they have no foundations, a great amount of tilting and bending of the walls can be observed, but although there are no straight lines in sight, there is something very attractive and organic in these houses. Perfect they are not, beautiful they are.
