DOWNLOAD EBOOKOver 430 full colour, high definition images of inspiration and heritage from the 43 Anglican Cathedrals of England and the Isle of Man with an interactive location map and links to official cathedral web sites. This book is the product of a 9 year project to capture in light and colour the hint of Transcendence reflected in the dedicated work of countless people over many centuries. Do enjoy this book, but better still, take time out and visit the cathedrals yourself to experience the faith and devotion of generations. "England’s cathedrals are not just some of the most magnificent buildings in the world, they are refuges where everyone is welcome to come and meet God in awe, reflection and joy. This beautifully shot book is a testament to the history and heritage of our buildings, those who have been inspired by them, and the glory of God. I hope all who read it are encouraged to visit and be, in their own way, a part of the cathedral community." Archbishop Justin Welby, April, 2020 All proceeds of the book are going to support the work of the Anglican Diocese of Central Zimbabwe. For more information visit SeasonImages.com/cathedralbook/.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKA population explosion in Thames-side Essex earned the County its own Diocese in 1914. The wealthy worshippers of St. Mary's, Chelmsford lost a bitter battle to retain private pews but won another against six rivals to become the cathedral. Forty years of war and austerity saw plans for a new building shelved. New churches in East London came first. Worshippers wanted to keep the Diocese at arm's length. No one knew what a cathedral was for. Even looking and sounding good proved difficult. Eventually visionary leadership gave Chelmsford Cathedral an identity as servant and not just ornament of the Diocese.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKEssex, one the largest counties of England, stretches from the suburban fringes of East London to the fishing and sailing ports of Harwich and Maldon and the famous seaside resorts of Clacton, Frinton, and Southend. Its buildings encompass rich Roman survivals, powerful Norman architecture, and the remains of major Tudor and Jacobean country houses. Essex is first and foremost a county famed for its timber buildings, from the eleventh-century church at Greensted to the early and mighty barns at Cressing Temple, and a wealth of timber-framed medieval houses. Later periods have also made their contribution, from Georgian town houses to Victorian and Edwardian industrial and civic buildings, and from important exemplars of early Modern Movement architecture to the major monument of High Tech at Stansted Airport.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKCathedrals are awe-inspiring buildings. Most are grand medieval structures, while others appear simple and unpretentious – yet all were designed to reflect the glory of God and have a profound impact on us. As trailblazers of architectural development, each cathedral has distinct individual features – such as the powerful Norman Romanesque west towers of Durham, the unique octagonal tower at Ely, and the daring late Gothic finery and spaciousness at Gloucester. In this lavishly illustrated guide to cathedrals from Bangor to York, with profiles of Roman Catholic and Scottish cathedrals, David Pepin outlines the evolution of architectural style, each building's key features, and the ongoing story of daily worship, wide-ranging ministry, conservation, the new work of craftspeople, and the increasing numbers of pilgrims and visitors.
