Gothic house built 1862
Homes of this period were often seen as being the first
civilized influence in their area when they were built.
A fineness of design was common in these homes, often
exemplified by very delicate woodwork.
Wallpapers in this period were generally printed in an
overall repeating design, with a decorative
element framed in a basic diamond-shaped motif. This repeating
motif could be formed of either a hard edged geometric
pattern, or a softer floral version..
