Ely is more than stone. In this richly detailed supplement to James Bentham's celebrated History and Antiquities of the Cathedral and Conventual Church of Ely, William Stevenson opens out the life of the great fenland church and its precincts with rare precision and warmth. Enlarged accounts of the medieval monastery of Ely, the Lady Chapel, Prior Crawden's Chapel, the episcopal palaces and other buildings bound to the see and the church turn bare walls into lived spaces, making this an indispensable ecclesiastical history reference and church architecture study. Lists of chancellors, vicars general, officials, commissaries and chief justices of the Isle of Ely, together with architectural, biographical, historical and explanatory notes, offer a deeply textured guide to Ely Cathedral history. An exemplary work of antiquarian cathedral history, Stevenson's supplement stands at the crossroads of british monastic history and local topography, anchoring the wider story of Cambridgeshire cathedral heritage and Isle of Ely history. Its close reading of fabric and record illuminates lady chapel architecture, episcopal power and civic life, making it invaluable for church history researchers, curious general readers and a trusted reference for local historians, genealogists and collectors of any english cathedral histories collection or british monastic history book. Republished by Alpha Editions in a careful modern edition, this volume preserves the spirit of the original while making it effortless to enjoy today a heritage title prepared for readers and collectors alike.
