What reading level is The Cathedral Church of Ely : a History And Description of the Building With a Short Account of the Former Monastery And of the See book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

Millers, minor canon, had bequeathed ;^ioo, and his residuary legatees gave another ;^3oo, which was applied to the ceiling of the nave; Miss Allen, daughter of the bishop, also bequeathed ;^5oo, appropriated to a new pulpit ; and Bishop Turton left the same amount for re-paving the nave.
The only other work of importance done before Dean Goodwin left for Carlisle was the reconstruction of the organ.
Canon Dickson, in his admirable historical account of the organ, is confident'that the instrume
...nt in use in 1831 was the original prse-Reformation organ, gradually enlarged from time to time with "all the improvements suggested by the progress of musical and mechanical art" Its preservation during the Commonwealth period is possibly due to the personal influence of Oliver Cromwell. About that date (1831) the organ was rebuilt by Elliott and Hill. It was fitted into the old cases, of Renaissance design. From the similarity of these cases to some which are known to have inclosed organs built by Renatus Harris, the old organ has sometimes been attributed to him ; but there is " no record whatever of the employment of Harris by the Dean and Chapter." The progress made in the time of Dean Merivale (1869- 1894) was steady and substantial, but calls for no detailed account.
