Batty Langley, Gothic Architecture Restored and Improved,1741

The rules by which the Ancient Buildings of this Kingdom were erected and adorned, having been entirely lost for many centuries; I have, therefore, for upwards of twenty

years, in order to restore and publish them for the good of posterity, assiduously employed myself, as opportunities have happened, in making researches into many of the

most ancient buildings now standing in this kingdom: and thence have extracted rules for forming such designs and ornaments in the ancient mode, which will be extremely

beautiful in all parts of private buildings.
