The Fleet Prison is noteworthy for being one of the oldest of the English prisons, and one mentioned frequently in literature. This work explores the actual workings of the privately-owned debtors' prison, examining its earliest history from medieval times; the celebrated inquiry into the administration of the prison during the 1610s; the misuse of authority by the wardens in the 1680s onward; the infamous Parliamentary inquiry in 1729, based on the parliamentary reports, trial papers, etc,; to the closing by parliamentary legislation in 1842.

  • A Social History of the Welsh Clergy circa 1662-1939
    Roger Lee Brown
    This study of the social history of the Welsh clergy is more an interim report or even a work in progress rather than a final assessment. Age and infirmity have forced me to publish it in this typescript format, and I have deliberately kept the text unjustified to emphasise this position. I had hoped to abridge it but this is not to be. It is produced in an extremely limited ed...

    The visiting of parishioners and the care of the sick and dying were some of the responsibilities of the clergy, and these tasks were duly emphasised in many visitation sermons and charges. As the Word of God was preached in the services, so it needed to be applied in the homes. Both were aspects of feeding the flock. Bishop Bull, for example, in his 1708 Charge, reminded his c...

    Each diocese and parochial body, that is in effective terms the bishop or the incumbent, was regarded as a corporation sole in English law. These rights were respected and no change could be implemented without parliamentary action. This position changed during the 1830s and beyond, but until then it meant that there was little recognition of the Church as having a corporate na...

    Part Two of A SOCIAL HISTORY OF THE WELSH CLERGY contains two sections, on Patronage and on the Income of the Clergy. The study relates to the four Welsh dioceses of the Church of England then in the Province of Canterbury.
