Stanton Harcourt - Oxon.
[Drawn & Engraved by Cha.s Tomkins.]
[London: Printed by J. Whiting, Finsbury Place, For J. Manson, Gerrard Street, Soho; and sold by Messrs. White, Fleet Street; T. Payne, Mews Gate; Greenland and Norris, Finsbury Square; H.D. Symonds, Paternoster Row; by the principal Booksellers in Berkshire and the adjoining Counties 1805.]
Aquatint. 216 x 280mm. 8½ x 11". Cut.
Stanton Harcourt, a village and civil parish in Oxfordshire. The village is mentioned in the Domesday Book, and is probably named after the prehistoric stone circle known as the Devil's Quoits. An early unfortified Manor House, built to house the Harcourt family in the late 14th century; however most of the house was dismantled to use as foundations for Nuneham Courtney in 1756. One of the surviving parts is the medieval kitchen with its octagonal roof seen here on the left. The kitchen is open to the rafters, and smoke from the open fire would gather in the conical roof space, ventilated by louvers in the base of the roof.

Etch'd by Newnham 1763. Drawn after Nature by P. Sandby.
Etching, very scarce, early issue before Society of Antiquaries. 400 x 520mm. 15¾ x 20½". Very fine.
An early unfortified Manor House, built to house the Harcourt family in the late 14th century; however most of the house was dismantled to use as foundations for Nuneham Courtney in 1756. One of the surviving parts is the medieval kitchen with its octagonal roof seen here on the left. The kitchen is open to the rafters, and smoke from the open fire would gather in the conical roof space, ventilated by louvers in the base of the roof. The artist on these engraved views is as family member. George Simon, Viscount Nuneham, later second earl Harcourt (1736 - 1809), was taught by Paul Sandby (1725 - 1809), and was a member of the Society of Dilettanti. The manor has remained in the Harcourt family to the present day.

[Anne Hathway's Cottage. Stratford-on-Avon.] 17. [Anne Hathaway's Cottage, in the village of Shottery, one mile from Shakespeare's Birthplace, was the early home of Shakespeare's wife and of her family. The property was in the Hathaway family from the time of Henry VIII. to 1838. It is a thatched cottage of the Elizabethan period, and is preserved with much furniture of corresponding date. No building in England is more famous than this "humble" cottage, and no place excepting Shakespeare's Birthplace has more visitors. The cottage, or house, is furnished in a homely style. In one room is the famous courting settle beside the hearth, where it would be well in view of the parents sitting at either end of the chimney corner. The house is of interest as a typical thatched Elizabethan farmstead, but it is its association with Shakespeare that has made it a centre of attraction for visitors to Stratford.]

Stonehenge, the most famous prehistorical monument in England, dedicated to the owners of the estate on which it stands. Among the sightseers are soldiers in uniform.

Plate from Austrian architect Johann Bernard Fischer von Erlach's 'Entwurf einer historischen Architektur' ('Outline of Historical Architecture', first published 1721) , the first comparative architecture of all periods and nations.

The Beauties of Stow were engraved by George Bickham [1706?-1771] from drawings by the Frenchman Jean-Baptiste-Claude Chatelain [1710-1771]. Stowe was one of the most famous gardens in England, boasting designs by some of the most celebrated English gardeners. Charles Bridgeman, Richard Kent, and Capability Brown all had a hand in designing the garden. The 1753 edition of Bickham’s prints were reissued in several editions throughout the second half of the eighteenth century, so it is difficult to identify the precise date.

A pleasure cruise or ferryboat on the lake at Stowe House, Buckinghamshire, with three smaller rowing boats surrounding. A fountain in the background, the park with the house in the distance on the left shore. Stowe was begun by Sir Richard Temple in 1676, his family having risen from sheep farmers under Elizabeth I.

Numerous famous architects worked at Stowe House and Gardens. Among them were Sir John Vanbrugh, William Kent, James Gibbs, Robert Adam, Thomas Pitt and Sir John Soane, making Stowe one of the most important houses and estates in the country.

![[Harvard House.] 22.](jpegs/14610.jpg)
[Harvard House.] 22. [Harvard House in the High Street of Stratford-on-Avon was the home of Katherine Rogers, afterwards Harvard, the founder of the American University of that name. It was carefully restored in 1909. Beneath the front window are inscribed the initials of Thomas and Alice Roger, parents of Katherine Rogers. Apart from its associations for Americans, the house is remarkable as a very fine and ornate example of late Elizabethan timber-work, anticipating the style known as Jacobean. The entire front is covered with a profusion of carved ornament, to such an extent that little of the timber frame has been left plain. Above the bracket heads on the ground floor is the carving of a female head, somewhat mutilated, and possibly intended to be Queen Elizabeth. Other parts of the house are of later date, a fire in 1595 having destroyed parts of it. The upstairs parlous is notable for beautiful oak panelling and for its period furniture.]

The house is sitiuated within large grounds, in which two archery targets can be seen on either side. East Bergholt is the birthplace of painter John Constable (1776 - 1837). The high level of skill and accuracy of the painting would suggest that it was made by an architect.
