First words
As the editor of The Buildings of England and the author of most of the volumes, I can only thank David Verey for having undertaken the labour of love of writing these two volumes on Gloucestershire.

Editor's foreword.
To begin with, a note on the division between the two volumes.

Foreword.
When the Romans left Britain, the Saxon invaders began to settle in the plains.

Introduction.
ST MARY. Nave, chancel, and S porch, and a N aisle added in 1853 by T. H. Wyatt, when he restored the rest.

Acton Turville.

Disambiguation notice
Note: "It is also necessary to point out to those readers who may expect to find Bristol included in the Gloucestershire volumes that they will not do so. It has already been published in the volume for North Somerset."
