1100th Anniversary > Pilgrim`s guide to Devon Churches
This book is a cameo of two thousand years of Christianity in Devon, and how the Church of England, in particular, has evolved. Exeter Cathedral and every single Devon Anglican church is included - from the oldest to the newest – with a photograph and enticing text inviting you to visit.

The book is packed with fascinating information, including the origins and meanings of church features and furnishings like rood screens and pulpits. Many of the churches are open in the day-time, so people can come in and see a wealth of architectural features, find out more about local history, or maybe sit and reflect a while.

With simple maps and a comprehensive index including Ordnance Survey map references, this is a book for the glove-box or back-pack, for Devonians or our many welcome visitors.
