The cottages, like the manor houses, the churches and farm- buildings, are all built of the native stone, and all are gabled and picturesque. Perhaps nowhere is there any architecture more perfect in its simplicity and grace than that found in these old English villages. The houses and hamlets form a more or less distinctive group, and are of great value as showing how simple and truthful building, in the hands of rustic craftsmen and designers, without outside influence, may develop an almost traditional style.
