Discovering England's Smallest Churches by John Kinross

A small rural church seats fewer than fifty, with a nave no more than thirty feet long. All the churches and chapels included in the book are still in use and can be visited by the growing number of enthusiasts who seek them out to enjoy their beauty and historical associations. A church such as St Enodoc in Cornwall, where Sir John Betjeman is buried, or St John, Little Gidding, Huntingdonshire, are prime examples of the type of church to be chosen. The book will be illustrated with photographs, line drawings and engravings. The text will be informative but not dry and include anecdotes and notes on the locality.
"One more spotlight turned on England's most precious architectural relics" -- Simon Jenkins Spectator "Illustrated with copious photographs and line drawings." THE OLDIE
John Kinross spent much of his professional life working on the magazine Country Life. He is a Reader in the Church of England and the son-in-law of a vicar. This book has been written with much help from his wife and numerous members of the clergy. Now retired, he lives in Cornwall.
