Churches are many things to us – they are places of worship, vibrant community hubs and oases of calm reflection. Andrew Ziminski has spent decades as a stonemason and church conservator, acting as an informal guide to curious visitors. Church Going is his handbook to the medieval churches of the British Isles, in which he reveals their fascinating histories, features and furnishings, from flying buttresses to rood screens, lichgates to chancels. Beautifully written and richly illustrated, it is a celebration of British architectural history.

“A joyous and illuminating exploration of our glorious heritage of old churches. A must for anyone who’s ever stared at an apse or a misericord with no idea what they’re looking at.” – Sir Tony Robinson
