The English Parish Church

The Open Churches Trust is pleased to offer you the opportunity to purchase an unique wallchart which shows the history and evolution of the English Parish Church.

It provides background knowledge to aid visits to churches and covers such items as:

- a study of history from a religious perspective using pictures and photographs of churches and their features.

- the development of churches covering 1,000 years.

- the legacy of medieval culture and Christendom in Britain.

- local vernacular and building materials.

The chart highlights aspects of the church that can be studied during a visit. It will help you to become aware of religious symbolism, of the development of the church design and fabric and appreciate how feelings of awe and wonder are expressed in architecture, craft and art.

For the price of £5.50 (inclusive of postage and packing) you can obtain a fully illustrated colour wallchart for the classroom, library, study room or home, to use as a teaching aid, on visits to churches and even as school prizes. Orders of five or more carry a 10% discount.
