註釋
From 1133 to 1536 there were 17 bishops' sees in England and four in Wales. Two out of these 21 sees had two cathedrals, Bath and Wells, and Coventry and Lichfield. At each cathedral the bishop had a house or palace. This book describes the surviving medieval remains there and the far more numerous manor houses and castles owned by the bishops, as well as their London houses. Apart from royal residences, these are far the largest group of medieval domestic buildings of a single type that we have.
