If these stones could talk : the history of Christianity in Britain and Ireland through twenty buildings

Stanford, Peter, 1961-2022
Books
The UK's parish churches, chapels, cathedrals, convents, abbeys and monasteries, spanning 1600 years, are a spectacularly rich but often overlooked heritage. Many are visited for their architectural and aesthetic qualities - they make up 45% of all Grade 1 listed buildings in the country - but rarely is the deeper historical story that they tell explored and joined up into a single narrative in our sceptical, secular times. This book tells that story - the story of Christian faith as it made its way into and through the British Isles - and how it has been expressed in our real, material ways of life.
