Scope and content
For some time WT has been interested in establishing a fund for the repair of Barsseston church. In aid of the fund he gave a small wood cut of the church for sale, and afterwards made a careful drawing of the interior to be published in further aid of the fund. He has sold many at Oxford but has not had the opportunity to do so in Cambridge. They have nearly completed the exterior but have not enough funds for the interior - does WW think the Cambridge Camden Society would help out? In the course of the repairs it seems that the church is made out of materials stemming from another dating about 1184.
