PREFACE TO THE SECOND EDITION 
HE first edition was so quickly sold out that there has 
JL been a demand for a second before I have had time to 
make many additions. There are, however, a few alterations, 
the chief of them being the insertion of a part of the plans of 
the Monastery of Canterbury from an early manuscript ; the 
correct view of Ingestre, instead of that of Castle Bromwich, 
which was substituted by mistake in the first edition ; and the 
addition of a view of Gunnersbury. 
I must express my thanks to all friends who have kindly 
pointed out misprints overlooked in the first edition, which I 
have endeavoured to rectify. I am also indebted to those who 
have helped me to add the names of a few more books to the 
Bibliography.
