About this book
The Norman character of Norwich Cathedral drives this guide, and C. H. B. Quennell writes with open fondness for the sturdy architecture of the late eleventh and twelfth centuries. After a chapter on the history of the fabric, he moves through the precincts, with the Erpingham Gate and St. Ethelbert's Gate, then the west front, tower and spire, chapter-house and bishop's palace. Inside he covers the nave, the cloisters, the choir and presbytery, and the pelican lectern. Early nineteenth-century views from Britton and Charles Wild sit among forty illustrations in this 1898 volume of Bell's Cathedrals.
