In this introduction to the English Parish Church, Alice Loxton travels across the country to uncover some gems of England’s heritage. From the whitewashing of the Reformation to Wesley’s hymns to William Morris’ efforts to preserve the past, there is lots to discover. And Alice is joined around by some interesting characters - Professor Diarmaid MacCulloch of Oxford University, Matthew Rice, the illustrator and author, and Peter Aiers, the chief executive of the Churches Conservation Trust.
