Sporting architecture

Tattersall, George, 1817-1849 · 1841 · London : R. Ackermann · 7 pictures

Sporting architecture, published in London by R. Ackermann in 1841 and written by George Tattersall, is a guide for planning kennels and stables for hunting and racing estates. Its plans are black-and-white floor layouts with room labels and dimensions, showing how kennel courts, feeding rooms, lodging rooms and stalls were arranged around yards; a designer could borrow their clear wall hatching and compact courtyard geometry for diagrammatic site plans.
