The English Parish Church - Charles Cox J

Originally published in 1914, The English Parish Church is a thorough and illuminating survey of nine centuries of ecclesiastical architecture. Accompanied by illustrations and photographs, J Charles Cox considers the styles and materials that have been used throughout history. From the development of basic layouts of nave and tower to finer details of masonry and ornamentation, each part of the church's fabric is placed in the context of its times and surroundings. Some interesting interior features are also highlighted, a subject Cox explored further in his subsequent volume, English Church Fittings, Furniture & Accessories.
