Bath Abbey (or the Abbey Church of St Peter and St Paul), Bath

NOTES: Construction on this Benedictine abbey church began in 1499 and was still incomplete when it was dissolved in 1539. It was subsequently looted and given over to the parish. Restoration of the church to serve as the grand parish church of Bath was promoted by Elizabeth I in 1574 and a new nave timber roof of lath construction had been completed by 1608-1616. Major restoration work was carried out by Sir George Gilbert Scott in the 1860s.
