Part of the popular Bell’s Cathedrals series, this volume by Cecil Walter Charles Hallett presents a short history of the Cathedral Church of Ripon together with a detailed description of its fabric. Ripon’s ancient foundation, with origins reaching back to the seventh century, makes it one of England’s most historic churches.
Hallett guides the reader through the building’s architecture, from the Saxon crypt to the medieval nave and choir, tracing the development of the see and its place in English religious history. Illustrated and accessible, it is an ideal companion for visitors and students. This free EPUB edition is formatted for reading on any device.
