MEDIEVAL WALL PAINTING IN THE ENGLISH PARISH CHURCH
A DEVELOPING CATALOGUE
(Updated with new material May 2006)
Anne Marshall, Associate Lecturer, The Open University (United Kingdom)
[May 2006 update] New pages from Buckinghamshire, Cambridgeshire, Dorset, Hampshire, Norfolk and Oxfordshire, along with a number of improved photographs on existing pages. All the new material is listed as usual on the What’s New Page. Click the link to see it.
The new pages, and everything else, can be found from the Main Contents Page, as usual.
Welcome. This site represents the continuing development of what may one day become a comprehensive catalogue. Vast quantities of Medieval Wall Painting have been lost forever, of course, but there is nevertheless more left on English church walls than is generally realised;
paintings continue to be uncovered and more still are known to exist under layers of plaster. Some of these will come to light one day; in fact some are already doing so, as at Houghton-on-the-Hill, near Swaffham in Norfolk, which is included in these pages.
From the Main Site Contents Page (links to it above and at the bottom of this page) you can go to any of the other sectors of the site. The various subjects and individual paintings, Bibliography and other pages already on the site will all be found from the Main Site Contents Page.
