Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Notes on the Churches of Derbyshire, Vol. 1 As these preliminary paragraphs are essential to the right understanding of the scope and purport of the following pages, and as they also contain information which is common to every church in the Hundred of Scarsdale, it is to he hoped that they will not be treated in the perfunctory fashion which is too often the fate of prefaces and introductions. When I first commenced to write the "Notes on the Churches of Derbyshire" for the columns of the Derbyshire Time, I had not the slightest idea of their reproduction. But after a considerable number had appeared, it was suggested to me from several quarters that it might be well if they were reprinted in a compendious form. The proprietors of the Derbyshire, Times cordially concurred in this suggestion, and the result was that I undertook to re-write and extend the articles, commencing with those relating to the Eastern Division of the County. This necessitated a far more careful treatment of the subject than had been originally bestowed, and my endeavours to exhaust all reliable sources of information, and to substantiate every statement, have involved a much greater expenditure of time and trouble than was anticipated. This must be my excuse for the delay which has occurred in the production of this volume, an excuse which will not be available for the conclusion of the work, as the ground that has been already traversed has given me opportunities of collecting no little material relative to every church in the county. Although articles on all the churches described in this volume, (with the exception of one or two of the less important chapelries,) appeared in the Derbyshire Times, it will be found that very nearly two-thirds of the pages are entirely new or completely rewritten.
