From surviving fragments of 7th century Anglo-Saxon churches to richly decorated late Victorian Gothic buildings, the parish churches of England reflect the country's history as well as the development of its art and architecture, particularly from the medieval period. For centuries, they were the focus of English communities and these churches are now the most important sources for local historians. Written by an archaeologist and illustrated by an architectural photographer, this selection of 100 parish churches celebrates the buildings, their decoration and their crucial place in English life.
