An Inventory of Nonconformist Chapels and Meeting-houses in the North of England
Author: Christopher StellPublisher:
ISBN:
Category : Chapels
Languages : en
Pages : 380
Book Description
Nonconformity flourished in the north of England from the 17th century. Great preachers found refuge in the area, new denominations arose in the growing population and many an early meeting-house remains as witness to an age of turbulence and enthusiasm. The history of more than three centuries is visible in the range of nonconformist buildings explored in this volume - from the earliest Puritan chapel to the magnificent edifices raised by 19th-century manufacturing moguls. This volume presents a full record of buildings. Some still stand, some have been rebuilt and in others the process of rebuilding continues. Sadly buildings have been lost, but the breadth of knowledge contained in this volume is an encouragement to campaign for the survival of this diverse aspect of English architecture.

The Women's Suffrage Movement in Britain and Ireland
Author: Elizabeth CrawfordPublisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1136010629
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 316
Book Description
In this comprehensive study, Elizabeth Crawford provides the first survey of women’s suffrage campaigns across the British Isles and Ireland, focusing on local campaigns and activists. Divided into thirteen sections covering the regions of England, Wales, Scotland and Ireland, this book gives a unique geographical dimension to debates on the suffrage campaign of the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries Through a study of the grass-roots activists involved in the movement, Crawford provides a counter to studies that have focused on the politics and personalities that dominated at a national level, and reveals that, far from providing merely passive backing to the cause, women in the regions were engaged in the movement as active participants Including a thorough inventory of archival sources and extensive bibliographical and biographical references for each region, including the addresses of campaigners, this guide is essential for researchers, scholars, local historians and students alike.
