Description

PLEASE NOTE: Our last few copies have slightly scuffed/ shop tired covers hence the price reduction

Joe Hillaby combines his extensive knowledge of the early British church, the Saxon minster and subsequent priory with recent research and archaeological excavation to present a picture of Leominster from the foundation of its minster, c.660, and associated borough, c.1123, to the priory’s dissolution in 1539.

Chapters consider many aspects of the priory’s functions, and its relations with the bishops of Hereford, the townspeople and local congregation. They catalogue the effects of the priory on the borough’s location, development and shape.

This book thus brings together countless strands to give an understanding of Leominster and its rural hinterland.
