A three-part volume, consisting of synthesis, and a two-part gazetteer. Examines what is known about the development of religion in the area of the Severn Valley from the Late Bronze Age to the foundation of the minsters in the early medieval period. The second part of the survey is concerned with the association of religion, community and territory, and consequently deals with the ways in which these aspects were interrelated. A framework is proposed for explaining the long-term development of communities in the region from late prehistory to the historical period.
