The Double Pile House

This offering to Denys Spittle is an attempt to isolate and describe houses built before about 175o with a plan essentially two rooms deep and with usually four rooms on a floor. Nearly four-hundred examples have been noted, the majority of them known only from the exterior. The Royal Commission on Historical Monuments (England) has found enough examples to include this plan-form as Class 9 in its classification (The Town of Stamford, 1977, pp. l–li)
