Overview
The year 2010 marked the 800th anniversary of Holy Trinity's
re-foundation, and through its story over eight centuries, we get a
vivid sense of a rich cultural context in the medieval Midlands, and the
turbulent centuries that followed, as the Church continued to serve its
community. The book is a living portrait of the parish at work from
past to present, set in the context of its connections with Shakespeare,
the church of his time, and its broader history. The title A Parish for
the World underlines its relevance to the entire international
community of Shakespeare lovers, tens of thousands of whom visit the
Church every year.
