            On
this page you
will
find full text chapter links to J. Charles Wall's book Shrines of British Saints.
Wall published the book through the Antiquaries Book Series in
1905.  It is now in the public domain.  I
transcribed Wall's original text
here.  I am making my own notes available to you. As such, there
may
be transcribing errors, factual errors in the text, or historical
points on which
historians or theologians do not agree. Read it, use it, love it, hate
it, on your own
terms and at your own risk.
