Church Rates and the Established Church explores what happened when Parliament debated how parishes should fund churches.
This abstract of select committee evidence offers a clear window into the law, practices, and disputes surrounding church rates in 19th‑century England.
Across testimony from archdeacons, clergy, and dissidents, the book outlines why church rates were controversial, how enforcement struggled, and what changes lawmakers considered. It presents arguments for and against keeping the Established Church tied to state funding, and it highlights the practical consequences for parishes, vestries, and dissenting communities. The material sheds light on real-world impacts—from Birmingham to Coventry and beyond—without venturing into speculation beyond the record.What you’ll experience
- A timeline of key debates, decisions, and parliamentary questions about church rates and funding.
- The core concerns of churchwardens, vestries, and property owners facing rate enforcement and conscientious objections.
- Different views on the role of the state in supporting the Established Church, and the potential effects of reforms.
- A sense of how local parishes managed finances, fabric maintenance, and parish offices under changing rules.

Store description
Seit über 30 Jahren handeln wir mit Büchern. Begonnen hat alles als kleiner Fachbuchhandel in Berlin. Heute sind wir spezialisiert auf den An- und Verkauf gebrauchter Bücher. Noch immer liegt unser Fokus dabei auf den Kategorien: Fachbuch und englischsprachige Literatur. Hinzu kommen Bücher aus allen anderen Genres, wie Belletristik, Biografien oder Kinderbücher. Unser oberstes Ziel ist dabei die Weiterverwendung von Dingen und die Schonung von Ressourcen. Neben dem Ankauf von privaten Büchern oder Haushaltsauflösungen kaufen wir bundesweit komplette Bibliotheken und Buchbestände von Institutionen auf, um diese nachhaltig ein weiteres Mal auf den Markt zu bringen. Parallel dazu bietet Buchpark die Möglichkeit, große Mengen einzulagern. Ganze Bibliotheken und umfangreiche Buchbestände werden von uns professionell auf Qualitätsmerkmale hin untersucht und sorgfältig für den Onlinehandel aufbereitet. Wir schenken Büchern ein zweites Leben.…
