    4to. 76 pp. printed on thick paper stock. 14 tipped-in albumen photos, sepia-tinted, from 4.5 x 3.5 in. to 4.75 x 7.75 in., 1 woodcut-engraved architectural plate, woodcut head- and tail-pieces, borders around text block. Embossed blue-green cloth over beveled boards, gilt lettering on front cover & spine (minor rubbing, shelfwear, some very minor creasing), still a VG copy. First edition of this scarce architectural & local history of the churches, rectory, and vicarage of Upton, Chalvey, and Slough, which until the reforms of 1894 were known as Upton-cum-Chalvey. Until 1974, the hamlets were located in Buckinghamshire, but are now in Berkshire, England. Upton's Norman Church was begun in 1121 by Gilbert Norman and Henry I, by the Convent of Augustinian Cannons at Merton. Of particular interest is that this was the marriage and burial place of Sir William Herschel, famed astronomer who discovered the planet Uranus. The albumen photos are crisp and sharp. Worldcat locates 4 copies.
