Guidelines on Recording a Vernacular Building

The Group has compiled some Notes on the Recording of Vernacular Buildings - a set of guidelines outlining the basic method used by the Group to measure, draw and describe a building. Those who are new to recording, in particular, may find these notes useful - they are available here in pdf format (to view pdf files you will need Acrobat Reader - if you do not have it, you can download it from here).
