Re: PESO - Glastonbury Abbey
Oliver can't take the rap for this one. He came later. This Cromwell was Thomas, Henry VIII's chief minister and architect of the programme to dissolve the monasteries and a distant relative to Oliver. Olly was partly responsible for the other piece of cultural vandalism in Rick's picture of the West front of Wells Cathedral, being a leading light in the puritan movement that destroyed many works of art in its campaign to remove idolatry from churches.
