Building Medieval Churches

Gone Medieval

About this episode

What is a perpendicular church? In this episode, Cat is on location! Invited by expert stonemason Andrew Ziminski to a spectacular perpendicular church in Steeple Ashton in Wiltshire, Andrew takes us on a guided tour. From honky punks to secret libraries. We learn all about what makes this perpendicular church unique and stonemasonry as a medieval trade, showing us how Britain's buildings offer unexpected and special insights into our history.


Andrew Ziminski, author of 'The Stonemason: A History of Building Britain', published by John Murray in 2020.
