    Edward RoyleARTICLEYorkshire Archaeological Journal2022

The context of this memorial is explained, and the c…

  • The Parish Community Through the Vicarage Window: Nineteenth-Century Clergy Visitation Returns

    Edward RoyleARTICLEFamily & Community History2009Cited by: 1References: 1

    This article uses the visitation returns of the clergy to Archbishop Thomson at his primary visitation of the diocese of York in 1865 in order to look at the relationships which defined the parish community as seen, idealised and criticised by the clergymen of this mainly rural diocese. Their collective view highlights key elements which helped make or break the community with the parish church at its centre: the support given by local landowners…

    Open AccessEdward RoyleARTICLEStudies in Church History1992

    Nineteenth-Century Britain was a Christian country, in that its laws and institutions were based upon the Christian religion. Not to be a Christian was to be excluded from full citizenship, for Christianity was, in the eyes of the Common Law, ‘parcel of the laws of England’. Until the Catholic Relief Act of 1829 Christianity was still for some purposes equated with Protestantism and, after this date, Jews and other ‘infidels’ continued unable to …

    The history of mechanics’ institutes ‘is at once beautiful and terrible to read', Christopher Charles Cattell, the Birmingham radical republican, told the members of his Eclectic Institute in 1854. Contemporaries of the mechanics’ institute movement in the mid-nineteenth century were acutely aware of this terrible history. ‘The banquet was prepared for guests who did not come ...,’ wrote Robert Elliott in 1861. J. W. Hudson referred to ‘The unive…
