Synopsis

273+ churches, chapels and ruined places of worship across the South Downs National Park (Hampshire, West Sussex and East Sussex), with a page and two photographs in full colour for each, looking at their landscape history and with insights and gossip provided by online access to tithe maps and the 1840s - including many unexpected and entertaining stories related to these varied, beautiful and special buildings. Plus some competitive Victorian church building is flushed out. Reader comment:‘In their Landscape’ is the most wonderful cornucopia of phenominally researched interesting facts and stories about the churches of the South Downs… (the) book is a masterpiece of its genre and of interest to anyone fascinated by the history of churches and their incumbents, and of the South Downs National Park. It’s a book to dip in and out of at will. I’m in awe at the depth of Amanda’s research and the fascinating nuggets she’s managed to dig up, page after page after page. Jane Austen? Yep, she’s in there. Gilbert White, ditto…. and many more… JL, Clevedon
