Country Life magazine 1897-1940

Country Life magazine commenced publication in 1897 and is still the foremost magazine today. Each weekly issue contains an illustrated main article on a country house / historical building. The early issues contain a fascinating record of the design, decor and furniture, building alterations and gardens over the past 120 years including the history of many of England's lost country houses.

Since 1997 we have been supplying national institutions such as English Heritage, The National Trust, museums world wide and private owners and occupiers of English country houses and historic buildings with original issues featuring their properties.  The articles are a valuable source for restorers, interior designers and historians. We supply you with the original issue beginning with the portrait frontispiece and including the main feature of the house listed. Stocks are limited but we will be cataloging and listing further issues regularly as we acquire them.
