Excerpt from Notes on the Churches of Kent The Notes on 312 Churches in Kent which are contained in this volume, form part of a series embracing the whole of England and Wales. This series, it must be premised, deals only with the old parish churches of the country dating anterior to the Restoration; though the author's acquaintance with churches in general extended with almost equal minuteness to a vast number both at home and abroad beyond this limit. The survey which it embodies, comprises upwards of 5,530 churches, and was spread over the whole of Sir Stephen Glynne's life. The precise date of its commencement does not appear; but in his early youth the forms of churches specially attracted his attention, and Ecclesiology soon became his chief pursuit.
