World house info gives great and wide information of the houses built with passion and fashion in mind. By passion we mean the famous historical houses that exhibited art, pride and varieties.
The buildings vary greatly in size from the small, single room houses only about 3 x 3.5m (10' x 11'8') like those found at West Stow to huge halls like that at Westminster which was 22 x 80m (76' x 262'). All the buildings fit into one of two large categories: sunken featured buildings and framed buildings. Both types are usually square or rectangular although a few round examples of each are known. Sunken featured buildings are those where a 'pit' forms part of the building, either as a living or working space, or as a sort of undercroft. These would have had a timber frame superstructure over them. Framed buildings are those where the whole building gain its strength from its timber frame, built around a series of posts set in the ground.
