A wonderful event at Bangor Cathedral marking the launch of the newest volume from the Canterbury & York Society - Bangor Episcopal Acta, 1092–1306 edited by Shaun McGuinness.
A superb addition to the Canterbury and York Society’s series from Dr Shaun McGuinness, and a timely practical demonstration of the essential role of archives, editions -and Welsh history departments- in understanding the Welsh Church and history in the Middle Ages.
