W. Harding Warner (1816 - 1894) was a British photographer specializing in architecture and landscapes. He issued stereo cards as well as two illustrated guides, A SKETCH OF TYNTERN ABBEY, and A SKETCH OF ROSS AND ITS NEIGHBORHOOD; both are broadsides with a single albumen photograph, historical text and a scaled drawing. Each was folded and issued with an envelope, which is not present here.
