Focusing on medieval Rochester, this collection explores the significance of its cathedral and castle as symbols of church and state power. The papers highlight the rich documentary evidence from the Anglo-Saxon era and the well-preserved structures from the 11th to 13th centuries. Key topics include shrines, monuments, woodwork, seals, and the lives of medieval monks. Additionally, it features a discussion on Archbishop Courtenay's establishment of the collegiate church in Maidstone, Kent, enriching the understanding of the region's historical context.
