Description

The Priory of Cartmel by J. C. Dickinson is a thoughtful local history title exploring the story of Cartmel Priory and its remarkable survival through the Reformation. When Henry VIII dissolved the monasteries, many religious buildings were destroyed and their stone reused, but the people of Cartmel were able to save their priory church because they had no other place to worship.

Set in the historic village of Cartmel in Cumbria, formerly part of Lancashire-beyond-the-Sands, this book offers insight into one of England’s most impressive parish churches and the community that helped preserve it. With its grand architecture and long religious history, Cartmel Priory remains a striking landmark visited by many each year.

A strong choice for readers interested in English church history, medieval buildings, local history, monastic heritage, and historic villages of Britain.
