Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents an exploration of the history of chantries in Lancashire, England, during the 13th through 16th centuries. Chantries were small chapels or enclosures within churches where priests performed services for the well-being of individuals, both living and deceased. The author provides an in-depth analysis of the founders, endowments, and religious practices associated with these institutions, drawing from a wealth of primary source material including reports from royal commissions. The book sheds light on the social and religious life of medieval Lancashire, offering insights into the beliefs, values, and charitable practices of the period.
