Church and Manor (1913) examines the unit of English territorial organisation known as the manor. It considers the manor and the church to be key twin parts of this unit, as the church was not only the place of worship but also often the seat of local government. By analysing the church and manor, this book provides valuable insight into the economic history of England, looking at the local focus of economic activity.
