hardcover. Condizione: Very Good. Publication: Liverpool, Historic Society of Lancashire & Cheshire, 1916 Formatting: 8vo, original printed card wrappers. Condition Report: Very Good. The original grey card wrappers remain fully intact but display moderate wear consistent with their age and fragile format. This includes slight splitting and minor chipping to the spine extremities, as well as mild rubbing and creasing along the overhanging yapp edges. The binding remains firm and secure. Internally, the text block is clean, with the untrimmed page edges showing only light, natural age-toning. Catalogue Note: This is a scarce original offprint, reprinted directly from the Transactions of the Historic Society of Lancashire & Cheshire for the year 1916. Complete with nine photographic plates and two maps, this edition offers a detailed historical and architectural survey of the site. As an offprint, this piece was likely produced in a very small print run for the author's private distribution or institutional use, making it an uncommon survival on the open market. An invaluable resource for regional historians and architectural enthusiasts, this 1916 study provides an in-depth exploration of the Chantry of St. John Baptist at Bailey. Authored by the Reverend C. A. Newdigate, S.J., with architectural descriptions by F. H.

Richly detailed and supplemented by historical records, this piece provides a comprehensive glimpse into Lancashireâs ecclesiastical heritage. N/A (illustratore).…
