Résumé:

Over twenty contributors set out some of the problems of preserving parish churches today when redundancy and demolition have become all too common. 'Anyone interested in churches quickly becomes astounded by how little we really know about them' - their sculptures, tiles, ironwork, woodwork, glass, and their archaeology - and the volume devotes a few pages to each of these, together with discussion of particular problems such as the sale of movable treasures, insensitive restorations etc.
