註釋
Enduring relics of an earlier time, the solid wooden chests and carved chairs found in England's churches each have their own story to tell. Originally published in 1929, Ancient Church Chests and Chairs is a guide to some of the more notable examples of medieval furniture found in Middlesex, Hertfordshire, Essex, Kent, Surrey and parts of Norfolk. From the grandest abbey to the most humble parish church, Fred Roe uncovers the fascinating history behind each chest or chair's design, decoration and inscription. With detailed drawings and photographs and a chronological index of the objects featured, Ancient Church Chests and Chairs is an illuminating and highly readable guide to the hidden treasures of England's churches.
