Suffolk boasts by far the greatest number of Domesday churches than
any other county surveyed by William the Conqueror in 1086. Over
the centuries, many of these buildings have been added to and
altered, whilst others have sadly disappeared either completely or
partially from the landscape. Some of Suffolk's churches are more
recent additions. The present-day churches of Suffolk, therefore,
offer a diversity of styles of architecture and of construction,
both inside and out. They range from flint round towers to whole
buildings built using prefabricated cement blocks, from
meticulously carved pew ends to flamboyant ceilings bursting with
colour, and from angelic musicians depicted in stained glass to
demonic wall paintings. For this book, the author presents a
selection of not only the best of Suffolk churches but also the
curious and intriguing, all of which tell the rich history of
Suffolk and its people at prayer over the centuries. This
fascinating picture of an important part of the history of Suffolk
over the centuries will be of interest to all those who live in or
are visiting this attractive county in England.
