Peterborough Cathedral - one of the finest Romanesque cathedrals in Northern Europe - was ravaged by fire on 22 November 2001. The first part of this book is a personal account of the process of restoring the Cathedral after that devastating event, illustrated with colour photographs from the day of the fire, through the restoration process, to the Festival of Thanksgiving four years later. The second part of the book focuses on Peterborough Cathedral's unique 13th-century painted nave ceiling which came close to complete destruction. It has been written as a testimony to the faith and vision of those who saw through this unique project and of those who have encouragement and financial support.

Book Description Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. On November 22, 2001, an arsonist set candles under stacked plastic chairs beside the crossing of Peterborough Cathedral. The resulting fire endangered but did not destroy the cethedral's fabric; it did destroy nearly five years' work of restoration and left a thick sooty residue over the cathedral's interior. A wonderful display of photographs reveals the determination and hard work that have brought this magnificent building back to a worthy state. Peterborough is one of a group of superb East Anglian Romanesque cathedrals, including Ely and Norwich, but its particular glory is its thirteenth-century painted wooden ceiling, unique in the world. This, too, was covered in a layer of black soot that had to be painstakingly removed. An essay considers the ceiling and its imagery. A wonderful display of photographs reveals the determination and hard work that have brought this magnificent building back to a worthy state after an arsonist's fire destroyed nearly five years' work of restoration.
