The Dissolution Of The Monasteries

Synopsis

An absorbing look at the major social and religious upheaval that we call the dissolution of the monasteries. In 1536 there were over 800 monsteries, nunneries and friaries, and in them 10,000 monks, canons, nuns and friars. Within four years, there were none. Look out for more Pitkin Guides on the very best of British history, heritage and travel.
