medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
Not to their builders, or to the Berkeleys, Despencers, and Mortimers.
Putting it in quotes is a bit cheeky, I know, but it just feels wrong
when talking about the 1320s.
The Berkeleys were able to transform St Augustine's Bristol in their own
image; the Despencers did something comparable at Tewkesbury. No single
lay family could ever have done that in a cathedral.

Why the inverted comas ? These churches are indeed cathedrals.
