$15.00 CAD

pp.[4] 142 “For many centuries the parish churches of England were the social as well as religious centres of the communities they served; the churches were by far the largest, and often the only public buildings, and the church provided the focal point for almost all activities – charitable, educational and recreational – as well as religious. The book describes the different ways in which the church buildings and their surroundings were used by local communities, the attitude of the parishioners, and the vital part which the churches have played in the secular as well as the religious life.”
