VICTORIAN HOUSES

Many social and technological changes had profound effects on the architectural development of the period.

Changes

With the beginning of the railways and new manufacturing processes, previously locally produced building materials became available all over the country.

Imposing houses were built in town and country for the aristocracy, tarraced houses began to be provided for the poor growth of housing for middle class

1. Untill the 1850s, the classical style of the Georgian and Regency periods continued to be fashionable

‘Battle of styles’

2. Inspiration came frm Italy and Italianet houses (Roman)

3. Ghotic Revival (mostly 1855-1875)

4. Aesthetic style

5. Arts and Crafts Movement (1867 – 1900s)

6. Queen Anne Revival style (1860-1900)

7. Eclectic style (1860-1890)

8. Art Nouveau (late 1880s- early 1900s)

Tarraced housing

More and more people moved into the new industrial towns to work in the mills and factories and rows of terraced back-to-back houses were built to house them. The houses were joined together to save space.

Terraced houses were very small with two rooms upstairs and two downstairs. There were often no gardens, only small back yards where the outside toilet was.

Windows

The Victorians invented a way to make big panes of glass, called ‘sheet glass’. This type of glass arrived in 1832 - five years before Victoria ascended the throne. True Victorian windows had six and later four paned vertical sliding sash windows

Bay Windows (windows that projects, normally with flat front and slant sides) were very fashionable in Victorian times. Typical Victorian bay windows are three sided. The ground floor bay window often had its own slate roof, or it might continue into a first-floor bay, again topped with an individual roof.

Interior

Poor people in Victorian times lived in horrible cramped conditions in run-down houses, often with the whole family in one room. These houses had no running water or toilets. Each house would share an outside water pump. The water from the pump was frequently polluted. Some streets would have one or two outside toilets for the whole street to share. Poorer families, if they owned a bath at all, put it in front of the kitchen rang. This was the warmest place in the house and very close to hot water. The whole family would wash themselves one after the other
