Publisher's Summary:
The two-hundred-year-old cottages known as Tylers Row, with charming leaded-glass windows and an arched thorn hedge over the gateway, are supposed to provide a haven of peace for their new owners, Peter and Diana Hale.
They plan to convert the middle two cottages into one, to create their own rural refuge. But beset by carpenters, plumbers, electricians, and bills, as well as their neighbouring tenants, the redoubtable Sergeant Barnaby and the sour Mrs. Fowler, both long-time residents of Tylers Row, the couple soon have cause to ponder their decision.
Fairacre is not the utopia they expect, and the Hales must adapt to ordinary life in a village full of extraordinary quirks. Read by Gwen Watford.
Members Reviews:
Hooray, Amazon - only a few scanning errors!
Miss Read gets 10 Stars but companies that sell flawed books should get 0. I give it 3 only because it is a Miss Read book. I have all of her hardbacks and paperbacks and would really enjoy the ebooks because of the ability to change background colors and font sizes but, after purchasing a few, only to discover huge scanning errors in the others I am giving up. No more Miss Read ebooks. BTW, always demand a refund - it is the only way Amazon gets the message - it doesn't give a damn about reviews. Also, the reviewer who mentions 'foul language' is correct - amazingly, there is foul language - I have spotted the same thing in 'Over The Gate' - I also now wonder if 'others' contributed to the writing.

Books by Miss Read
These books are enchanting and are wonderful to relax with even though there is always an excitement plot to follow.
I wish Kindle will have all of then in a audio version, I know audio versions exist to most of Miss Read books. Please purchase the rights and let us enjoy listening to these beautiful stories
As a designer and a lover of architecture this is my favorite volume in the Fairacre series.
Tyler's Row is a series of four joined cottages. The poor landlord has rented out these cottages to Fairacre's less fortunate citizens for so long that there is no money left over for the maintenance and repair of this charming row of thatched cottages. After much thought he decides to sell up and move to a nice quiet retirement.
But who will purchase this row of cottages and what will they do with them? And what about the two feuding villagers who live at opposite ends of the four cottages? Can anyone live in peace with these two?
Read along and enjoy as the cottages are purchased and remodeled by newcomers to Fairacre, and thrill to their adventures and misadventures with the process.
I really enjoyed this volume in the series, and I'm enjoying each book in it's turn.
Buy all the Miss Read books. You'll enjoy them over and over for years.
Anyone looking for great bedtime reading should buy all the Miss Read stories. I read these to an Alzheimer's patient over the phone each evening. Not only is she able to follow the stories (with a little judicial editing my me to weed out any sad words because an 85 year old lady does not need to hear about gravestones in the churchyard). She chuckles at the subtle humor and thanks me for the word pictures of a beautiful village.
