Historic Churches
The Conservation and Repair of Ecclesiastical Buildings,
31st Annual Edition (December 2024)
Most of the oldest architecture in the UK is religious, and many of these buildings have been superbly ornamented over the centuries. All the greatest artists were employed, including sculptors and carvers of wood and stone, blacksmiths and ironworkers, painters and decorators, and the makers of stained glass windows. These buildings and their monuments are now of unparalleled cultural and historical importance, and they include an extremely high proportion of all our Grade I and Category A listed buildings. However, as the resources of congregations continue to decline, churches and chapels in particular are among the most threatened, and the number of closures is set to rise sharply. Historic Churches magazine celebrates this heritage of ecclesiastical art and architecture, promotes its conservation, and publicises developments in the fight to keep the UK’s historic places of worship open and cared for. Beautifully illustrated in full colour throughout, the 31st edition of Historic Churches will be of interest to all who are involved in the maintenance and conservation of places of worship and their memorials, or who have an interest in this precious legacy.
