Synopsis

Informative and lively, here is a practical guide to more than 850 English parish churches of outstanding interest and beauty. The authoritative gazetteer highlights the essential features of each church - from ornately pinnacled towers, stained glass windows and carved rood screens in sumptuous abbeys, to the whitewashed simplicity of rustic churches. Descriptions of monuments to local magnates, together with a wealth of anecdotes illustrate the social and religious life of individual communities.
Each church is clearly map referenced and specific opening times are provided. Nearby tourist attractions are also pinpointed.
For enthusiasts of church architecture and history, as well as the occasional visitor who wants to explore a unique aspect of England's heritage, this Nicholson/ ETB guide offers a fascinating selection of churches and makes an ideal touring companion.
