There are some 650 medieval churches in Norfolk and together they make a heritage unequalled aywhere in the world.

Richard Tilbrook spent seven years lovingly portraying them. In this book he has selected sixty-five from among his favourite churches and captured them stunningly in their landscapes, while evoking the beauty and atmosphere of their interiors and the work of the medieval stone masons, carpenters and artists who created them.

CV Roberts has contributed an enthralling and informative text which begins the story with the coming of Christianity to East Anglia in the Dark Ages. With his contagious enthusiasm for Norfolk's churches, he brings the subject to life, and gently leads the reader on to a greater understanding and appreciation of this remarkable treasure around us.

Thanks are due to Mike Fuggle who designed this book.
