Description

Explore how the Church shaped the development of English towns through this scholarly examination of Gloucester and Worcester during the medieval period. This Routledge publication investigates the critical role ecclesiastical institutions played in urban planning and settlement formation before the Norman Conquest, addressing long-standing gaps in our understanding of early English urbanisation. Drawing on archaeological and historical research, the book examines the processes by which larger towns emerged as planned settlements, revealing the relationship between religious authority and urban growth. Essential reading for historians, archaeologists, and students of medieval Britain seeking to understand how religious institutions influenced the physical and social landscape of developing urban centres.
