Abstract
AbstractIn his study, English Vernacular Houses, Eric Mercer points out that though by the eighteenth century landless labourers and smallholders constituted a significant element of the rural population it remains generally impossible to identify houses that were homes of such labourers or belonged to smallholders who might also have worked as craftsmen or part-time labourers. The demolition in 1975 of a small building at Sileby, Leicestershire, may offer tentative evidence concerning the character of such houses in one Midland county.
