It also embraced Westminster School, which was founded at the Reformation in the Abbey precinct. Collectively, these institutions occupy a remarkable assemblage of medieval and later buildings, most of which are well documented. Although the Association had held a conference at Westminster in 1902, this was the first time that the internationally important complex of historic buildings was examined holistically, and the papers published here cover a wide range of subject matter.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n","brand":"Routledge","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47448829395075,"sku":"9781910887295","price":522.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0564\/6830\/8099\/files\/9781910887295.jpg?v=1783318569","url":"https:\/\/sebink.com\/products\/westminster-the-art-architecture-and-archaeology-of-the-royal-abbey-and-palace-british-archaeological-association-conference-transactions-1st-ed","provider":"Sebink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
