Brick Pavement
and Fence Walls:
Authentic Details for Design and Restoration

by Peter J. Harrison

One of the oldest and most versatile building materials available, brick is used for period landscape design in walkways, entry pavements, courtyards, terraces, porticoes, steps, and fence walls.

With the increased interest in traditional landscape design, this book will appeal to anyone who is interested in restoring old brickwork or in creating new brickwork with a historic feel.

This one-of-a-kind book is the result of the author's 12 years of architectural research and extensive travel documentation.
