Dr Geoffrey Orrin's study contains a detailed account of all those
Anglican churches within the county of Glamorgan that were built,
rebuilt, restored or re-modelled in any significant way during the
Victorian period, 1837-1901. It includes as well as the churches
within the county that were part of the diocese of Llandaff, those
Anglican places of worship within the deanery of Gower in the
western part of that county which was included within the diocese
of St David's. The author, greatly to his credit, appears to have
closely studied and observed every church in person in addition to
assembling all the relevant material he could find amid a wide
range of manuscripts and printed sources relating to the work
undertaken on the churches. Many churches now demolished or
redundant are included in this work. The whole is arranged parish
by parish, set out in alphabetical order. The result is the
standard work of reference for all those interested in church
building and restoration in Victorian times for local historians,
students of church history in Glamorgan, clergy, parishioners,
librarians and architectural historians. The work is illustrated by
60 monochrome photographs, some of which have never been published
before.
