The Church Plate of Pembrokeshire (1905)

The Church Plate of Pembrokeshire is a historical and archaeological study of the church plate of Pembrokeshire, a county in Wales, written by John Thomas Evans and published in 1905. The book examines the various silver and gold objects used in religious services, such as chalices, patens, and ciboria, as well as other items like candlesticks and flagons. The author provides detailed descriptions of each object, including their size, weight, and inscriptions, and discusses their historical and artistic significance. Evans also explores the history of the churches in Pembrokeshire and the role that church plate played in the religious and cultural life of the region. The book includes numerous illustrations and photographs of the objects discussed, as well as maps and diagrams of the churches and their surroundings. This book is an important resource for scholars of Welsh history, art, and culture, as well as anyone interested in the history of religious objects and their significance in the Christian tradition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
