medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
Frank,
My favorites are Tewksbury Abbey, Norwich Cathedral, King's College
Chapel, Cambridge. Canterbury Cathedral is a must. Also the Chapter House
at Southwell Minster.

> My wife and I hope to spend the month of February in England. As I have

> We have benefited greatly from your past advice, and we plan to follow

>
> Any advice, especially concerning sites that you personally find
> interesting/beautiful/inspiring/ educational, will be greatly
> appreciated. I have found your personal recommendations far more
> helpful than a shelf of tour guidebooks.
>
> As a sort-of-retired pastor (Do any of us on this list ever really
> retire? Or is it merely that they stop our salaries?), I look forward
> to our return to Canterbury and the shrine of Thomas Becket. I think a
> visit there should be part of every clergyman's education. So much for
> my personal recommendation.
>
> I appreciate your tolerance of this misuse of our list, and lest folks
> get bundles of superfluous e-mails in these days leading up to Leeds, I
> would ask that you reply off list.
>
> Again, thanks to all who have guided us in the past.

> In gratitude,
