The book traces the architectural progression of Poltimore from Tudor manor to grand 20th century mansion, records its historic role in England's tempestuous Civil War and details its use after 1920 as first a school and then a hospital. It will appeal to all those who knew the house and estate in a personal capacity in the past, those who have visited it since the formation of Poltimore House Trust in 2000 and the Friends of Poltimore House inDwellingsGreat BritainHistoric sitesGreat BritainDevon (England)HistoryDwellingsHistoric sites942.3/5Hemming Jocelyn1556121Howard Peter326549MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910784162203321Devon house3818604UNINA
