Pamela Tudor-Craig is one of the leading lights of the Harlaxton Medieval Symposium and is well known for her work on the conservation of historic churches. Therefore, the 1998 Harlaxton Symposium, which was dedicated to Pamela Tudor-Craig, focused on the architecture, history, administration, rituals and conservation of some of England's finest cathedrals. Fifteen papers discuss, for example: 12th-century cathedral finances; Durham's cathedral precinct; Peterborough Abbey's painted nave ceiling; decorated pavements; enclosures and entrances; Marian liturgy in Salisbury Cathedral; the Old St Paul's Cathedral; the craftsmanship of a bishop's ring; Antiquarian studies.
