Abstract

This essay considers landscape history as a cultural practice emerging in post-war England. Attention is given to the cultural motivations and textual conventions of landscape historians such as Hoskins, Barley and Beresford. Issues addressed include the cultural politics of scales such as locality and county, the cultural value ascribed to vernacular building, and the discovery of the deserted medieval village as a cultural icon.
