Unsurpassed in the years since its first publication in 1917, English Church Woodwork is the definitive guide to the ornate craftsmanship of the Gothic period. FH Crossley spent over twenty years recording, measuring and photographing churches across England and Wales: from his archive of over 10,000 pictures, the 380 reproduced here show the finest examples. Accompanied throughout by FE Howard’s clear and authoritative text, the survey includes rood screens, misericords, quire stalls, pulpits, lecterns, doorways and font covers, highlighting both the incredible levels of skill and fascinating regional variations in the woodwork.English Church Woodwork is both ambitiously wide in scope and satisfyingly comprehensive: a fitting tribute to what is arguably the finest legacy of the medieval ages.
