From around the eleventh century until the Reformation, a close
connection between the Church and hospitals was formed as they
became a refuge for the ill, ostracised and poor. First published
in 1926, John Morrison Hobson presents a fascinating survey of the
hospitals and almshouses found throughout medieval England. Full of
photographs and illustrations, Hobson surveys the almshouses by
geographical location and provides a social and historical context
for each. This practical and interesting study will be of use to
students and academics with an interest in English hospitals and
almshouses, their relationship to the Church, and English social
history more generally.
