Late Churches and Chapels in Berkshire: A geological perspective from the late eighteenth century to the First World War
Book information
Description
This monograph set out to reveal what an essentially geological analysis could tell about the churches and Nonconformist chapels that appeared so abundantly in the county of Berkshire, England, between the late eighteenth century and the First World War. In an attempt to understand the geological evidence, however, the work inevitably strays into other fields.
