What is Discovering churches and churchyards : a guide to the architecture of English parish churches from Anglo-Saxon times to 1900 about?

'Just tuck yourself into the back of an old church and drink in its age and atmosphere, think about who built it and why, and who has been there since. So writes Mark Child in his latest book, in which he traces the development of church architecture from Saxon times to 1900, describing also such internal items as fonts, seating and stained glass. A distinctive feature is the chapter on churchyards; with many churches being kept locked, visitors can find much of interest in the surrounding plot, including the lychgate, the gravestones and the yews. There is a gazetteer, further reading list, and numerous illustrations. Other Shire titles by this author Discovering Church Architecture
