Gavin Plumley considered himself a distinctly urban being... until he met his rural husband, Alastair. Together, they bought Stepps House - a three-storey building in Pembridge, Herefordshire - on love at first sight. But then came the inevitable question from an insurance salesman: 'How old is it?' The date they'd been given of 1800 seemed out by centuries.
As Gavin traced Stepps House through various hands and eras, he uncovers a past steeped in history and art, memory and nature that resonates powerfully with our present.
"A wide-ranging meditation on place and past... a gentle, reflective book. Plumley is at his best when describing the things he loves: his husband, his new home, its history." - Literary Review
