"An essential component of homes and commercial buildings before the advent of indoor plumbing, privies--also known as "garden houses"--have found new uses as storage sheds, pool houses, etc. In this pattern book of 18th- and 19th-century designs, Harrison has painstakingly documented existing historic structures and translated them into beautiful line drawings, including compelling details such as finials, doors, windows, and ventilators."Not cheap at £57.50 but since it's pretty authoritative, probably a good investment. You can see the whole book online here. Below is the Sylvnus Bourne House from Wareham, Massachusetts.
