Description

Churches of Wessex

Churches of Wessex Kenneth Ponting with a Foreword by the Bishop of Bath & Wells. Kenneth Ponting has written descriptive captions full of information and interest, and his book is one of changing moods-of spiritual ecstasy in the medieval sculpture at Bradford-on-Avon and the superb roods at Langford; of general humour at Brent Knoll and Durweston; of simplicity in John Wesley's first Methodist chapel in Bristol, stubborn Norman strength at Devizes, and grandeur at Sherborne, Wells and Winchester. It is a heritage we all possess, and this book a fascinating guide to it.
