This book was most recently revised in 1974, but is essentially little different from the 1959 original, apart from the addition of sixties buildings and the removal of some major buildings destroyed in that decade. For instance, it still lists the tower of the church at Linstead Magna, even though it was demolished in 1964. However, it is a handy volume, very good if your interest is architectural rather than historical or liturgical. It is the only major guide which lists non-Anglican churches, and it is always good to have a guide to other, non-ecclesiastical buildings in the area. A new edition is in preparation. If it is as good as the new editions for Northumberland and North-East Norfolk, then it will be very good indeed.

One of the series covering all of England compiled and completed by the author in the late nineteen-sixties. This series formed the basis for the television series featuring the author as architectural historian. This is more than just a catalogue of the buildings of architectural interest in the county. The descriptions contain detail that enable one to enjoy an informed visit to a site. It also contains geographical, archeological and historical background information that helps to explain much about materials and styles used. Keep it in your car! And get the others in the series when you travel elsewhere!

I do not believe this book exist.

I believe the latest revision is 1974. All the pictures are in black and white.
