Bury St Edmunds Through Time Revisited

Af: Martyn Taylor Engelsk Paperback
Tjek vores konkurrenters priser
Originally called Bedricesworth, pilgrims came to worship at the shrine containing the martyred King Edmund, thus lending his name to the town. The enormous Benedictine Abbey of St Edmundsbury, alas now in ruins, was one of the largest in the country, extending its influence over much of Suffolk. Its existence contributed to the affluence of the town – so much so that even kings held their parliament here! The town''s affinity with Magna Carta is something it is proud of. Bury received its first charter from James I in 1606, enabling it to prosper even further with a growth envied by other towns. The twentieth century saw the creation of the Diocese of St Edmundsbury and Ipswich. The parish church of St James became Suffolk''s Cathedral; its millennium tower is magnificent inside and out. Today tourists come to enjoy the wealth of history and heritage.With all new images depicting this historic market town, Bury St Edmunds Through Time Revisited will appeal to residents and visitors alike.
