Title: The Bone Chests Author: Cat Jarman Narrator: Cat Jarman Format: mp3 Length: 10 hrs and 1 min Release date: 09-14-23 Ratings: 5 out of 5 stars, 2 ratings Genres: Archaeology Publisher's Summary: In 1642, William Waller and his Parliamentarian army came to Winchester with destruction on their minds. They forced entry to the magnificent cathedral that had stood on the site for over 600 years and began to smash things. In the cathedral’s holiest place, ten beautiful mortuary chests rested as they’d done since the 7th century. In search for treasure, the soldiers ripped open the lids and when all they found were bones they flung them at the great West Window, destroying the 14th-century stained glass with its sacred images of the Virgin Mary and St Peter.
