Puts the spotlight on Britain’s tiniest churches for the first time and uncovers their fascinating historical background. Includes up-to-date practical information on getting to each tiny church via public transport. Highlights special architectural features to look out for, all of which are represented by closeup color photos. Beautifully presented in full color throughout, the book uncovers 60 of the loveliest and most diminutive places of worship in Britain, many of which are known only to locals. Each church is so tiny that fewer than 50 people could fit comfortably inside, each is open to the public, and many boast fabulous wall paintings, stained glass, and artworks as well as fascinating histories. Representing a unique slice of British local history and attitudes, tiny churches are the great survivors of the world. Still standing after centuries of religious unrest and the meddling of the Victorian \"church improvers,\" they live on in this most irreligious of centuries, scattered all over Britain. Each entry features information on how and when to visit the church, a concise round-up of its history, and details of any must-see architectural features.","forthcoming":false,"isbn13":"9780749579913","publication_date":"20190101","publisher":"AA Publishing","slug":"tiny-churches","subtitle":"Kindle Edition","title":"Tiny Churches"},"discovery":{"categories":{"all":[{"bisac_code":"TRV009070","confidence_band":"medium","label":"Great Britain Travel","score":0.7151,"source":"bisac_hint_model"},{"bisac_code":"TRV026060","confidence_band":"medium","label":"Pilgrimage & Sacred Travel","score":0.7132,"source":"bisac_hint_model"},{"bisac_code":"ARC024010","confidence_band":"medium","label":"Landmarks & Monuments","score":0.6891,"source":"bisac_hint_model"}],"hint":[{"bisac_code":"TRV009070","confidence_band":"medium","label":"Great Britain Travel","score":0.7151,"source":"bisac_hint_model"},{"bisac_code":"TRV026060","confidence_band":"medium","label":"Pilgrimage & Sacred Travel","score":0.7132,"source":"bisac_hint_model"},{"bisac_code":"ARC024010","confidence_band":"medium","label":"Landmarks & Monuments","score":0.6891,"source":"bisac_hint_model"}],"publisher":[{"bisac_code":"ARC016000","confidence_band":"high","label":"Religious Buildings","score":1,"source":"onix_publisher_code"},{"bisac_code":"TRV009070","confidence_band":"high","label":"Great Britain Travel","score":1,"source":"onix_publisher_code"}]},"genres":[{"label":"Great Britain Travel","score":0.7151,"slug":"great-britain-travel"},{"label":"Pilgrimage & Sacred Travel","score":0.7132,"slug":"pilgrimage-sacred-travel"},{"label":"Landmarks & Monuments","score":0.6891,"slug":"landmarks-monuments"}],"reader_fit":["Good for readers interested in Britain's historic churches and architecture","Readers seeking practical information for visiting churches"],"related_lists":[],"series":null,"similar_books":[{"authors":["Luke Sherlock","Ioana Pioaru"],"book_id":"9780711294103","cover_image_url":"https://img.bookfrontier.com/9780711294103.jpg?v=9d6facf9b0696b61","score":0.7621,"title":"Forgotten Churches","url":"https://bookfrontier.com/books/9780711294103"},{"authors":["Reverend Fergus Butler-Gallie","Fergus Butler-Gallie"],"book_id":"9781668074473","cover_image_url":"https://img.bookfrontier.com/9781668074473.jpg?v=dafe1fd5a1e5ed05","score":0.7272,"title":"Twelve Churches","url":"https://bookfrontier.com/books/9781668074473"},{"authors":["Brandon J.
