A series of ten programmes with Donald Sinden
By the 14th century the Gothic style of architecture was well established and the skill of the masons so respected that God himself could be portrayed as the divine architect of the universe, holding the world in his compasses.
This week Donald Sinden looks at the men who built our parish churches and visits St Patrick's Church, Patrington, Humberside, one of the country's most perfect examples of the decorated phase of Gothic architecture.
