"Number 57" is the story of a house and its inhabitants. Accompanying the six-part Channel 4 series, "Number 57" will be restored to its original 1779 condition and then updated to show how our homes have changed through the Georgian and Victorian eras, the Arts and Crafts and Art Deco movements, to post-war Britain and finally to the 21st century.

Rather it is a history of the changes in attitudes and technology that have affected the changes in our domestic arrangements. It also includes a comprehensive directory for home owners wanting to recreate the style of each period.
