In love and faith: Arlington Church & Churchyard (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781458370228)

The book reviews the history of Arlington Church and Churchyard in Sussex, and gives the full record of all the inscriptions on the site, together with plans, photos and indexes. An invaluable resource for local amd family history. Arlington is an enigma: an unusually large church and churchyard serving a tiny village. The Saxons, who founded the village, chose an unusual and difficult site - low, wet and densely wooded - next to the Cuckmere River. Was it for the sake of of trading up and down the river? Was the Norman chapel connected to the Canterbury pilgrimage cult? Arlington has a history of isolation, disunity and dissent, not helped by roads that in the past were often under water. This A5 paperback is 227 pages long with 12 plans, 54 black and white illustrations, an index of monuments and a general index.
