Studies on Newmarket. Watercolour studies of the charming architecture of newmarket. A transitional place in terms of traditional vernacular.
Newmarket developed from an ancient route-and-market settlement on the Icknield Way, rather than from a church-centred medieval core, so its built form evolved pragmatically around trade and movement. That helps explain why the town does not present one single dominant historic style; instead, it layers older market-town functions with later domestic and commercial rebuilding. In the surrounding district, Georgian buildings of red brick and flint show this more formal later phase of building, especially to the east of Newmarket.
You can see flat used above as a decorative material.Flint is part of the wider East Anglian vernacular because it was widely available and often combined with other local materials rather than used alone.
