Studio vista, London 1977 First edition ISBN 0289707757 192pp Illustrated Paperback. What is happening to your church? Has it been closed? Or demolished? Can you be sure that this is not about to happen? Has the communion plate been sold? Is the interior about to be reordered to fit in with new ideas of worship? Do you know that the monuments in a church arte often as important as the paintings in a gallery? That the many churchyards are often the oldest and often the only uncultivated grassland in the area containing many rare species of flora? Yet churches everywhere are falling into decay and disuse. the church of England alone declared 592 churches redundant between 1968 and 1976. nonconformist chapels are closing at an even faster rate, particularly in Wales. Half of the churches in Scotland are threatened with closure in the next twenty five years. Countryside and city, Anglican, Catholic and Nonconformist are all equally subject to the gathering momentum of this despoilation. This lavishly illustrated guide shows us some of the treasures that have been salved from churches that are no longer in existance.
