Summary:
"The enclosure of space and time is the theme of these wood-engravings and linocuts--imaginary walled cities and stables, a Norfolk church, a Cambridgeshire rectory, a medieval priory.... [These wood-engravings and linocuts] celebrate eight hundred years of an Oxfordshire church, two Church festivals, the academic terms of a Cambridge college chapel, a weekend conference, a birth. The blocks were engraved over a period of twenty-five years..."--Author's introduction.
