Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Notes on the Churches of Derbyshire, Vol. 2 Although articles on most of the churches in the Hundreds of the High Peak and Wirksworth have appeared in the Derbyshire Times, it will be found that fully two-thirds of these pages are entirely new or completely rewritten. The work of rejecting that which is superfluous, or of less value and originality, has been far more difficult with this volume than with its predecessor; for not only does it contain a greater number of churches, and more of first importance, such as Ashbourn, Bakewell, Tideswell, Wirksworth, and Youlgreave, but the scheme of the book has grown upon my hands, as fresh sources of information have deen disclosed. I should like, therefore, to remind my readers, that, though this work will, I fear, be usually known as the "Churches of Derbyshire," it was no mock-modesty on my part, but a full consciousness of its shortcomings and of the impossibility of thoroughly exhaustive treatment, which caused me to give it the fuller title of "Notes on the Churches of Derbyshire." Though working new veins of material, I have tried to follow up those sources of which I availed myself in the last volume with equal care, but, as my pages have already not a little exceeded the limit originally assigned to them by my publishers, I shall not be expected to re-enumerate those sources in detail. Suffice it to say that the Close, Patent, Fine, Pipe, Charter, Quo Warranto, and Hundred Rolls, together with the lengthy series of Inquisitions have been thoroughly searched, full references given to them in the notes, and several of the more important ones given in extenso in the Appendix.
