The classic English town house is an ideal of urban architecture: refined, harmoniously proportioned and classically understated, yet also compact, convenient and connected to its neighbours - a private space with a public face. Here, art historian Rachel Stewart discusses the evolution of the town house and the various factors - historical, fashionable, functional and social - that have affected its development from medieval times to its hey-day in the Georgian era and beyond. With photographs by Stephen Whitehorne.
