Divided into two parts this book first considers the financial, historical and legal background to the conservation of older properties before addressing the specific issues relating to alterations, conversions and repairs. Individual chapters are devoted to floors and ceilings, interior features, roofs, services and walls. Part II concludes with some case histories, fire precautions for thatched properties, a list of useful organisations and a glossary.
