Remarks: The Morning Congregations vary, and are considerably larger on the alternate Sundays when there is a sermon (on March 30th there was no sermon). I have therefore in the second column given the averages for the number of attendants on the alternate Sundays respectively. The Sunday scholars properly belong to the Wesleyan Sunday School, though the parents of many of them are members of the Established Church. The second service, always with a sermon, is alternately in the afternoon and the evening. I therefore give two averages.

Remarks: The attendance in the summer months is much better, but in the cold weather the congregation is very thin which reduces considerably the general average.

Wm. Clayton, Curate

It will be seen that there is a great want of free accomodation [sic]. In consequence only very few of the cottagers (who are the majority in this parish) are able to attend church. The few free sittings there are are inconveniently situated, and there- fore seldom fully occupied. Of the families of those who occupy the large pews, a portion only attend Church at the [same] time, and this, coupled with the fact that the majority of the parish- ioners reside at a considerable distance from the Church, and with the lack of free accomodation, is the cause why the atten- dance at Church is so disproportionate to the extent of the whole population of the parish.

Total 46 93 -

Average:

No account has been kept by which to form an accurate opinion as to the general average congregation. Nor must any opinion be formed from the numbers present on 30 March except as to the scholars whose number is much as usual.

Remarks: The condition of the church in this district is that of a new mission in a place abounding with almost all kinds of heresy, schism and irreligion. A church is much needed but the friends of the church unable to build one. There is also a National School during the week as well as on Sundays. It stands greatly in need of pecuniary support by which it might be much improved but I could not accept assistance on any terms which would take the school out of my own control.

Thomas Wood

Sir, From what I am able to ascertain this Chapel was built about 50 years back by two or three wealthy families in Nottingham - they have now no resident Minister. And only a few persons attend - there is a road through the Chapel into the Vestry where they meet in a room that might hold twenty to thirty persons if full - the Chapel has not been used for some years.

Yours obediently, Thomas Cave Regr. of St Mary Nottingham.

182 [attached letter] St. Mary's Vicarage 1 April 1851

Hond. Sir,

I have taken the liberty of forwarding the accompanying returns of schools and places of worship under my superintendance direct to yourself, in order to prevent any improper use being made of them by the officers appointed to receive them, the majority of whom in Notting- ham are Dissenters.

You will perceive that I have not filled up the return No. 7 for St. Mary's Church, simply because there is no column to show the deduc- tions from the income: and as these are very considerable, to fill up the return according to the present form would convey an erroneous and injurious idea of the real value of the living.

I understand that in the case of Dissenting Chapels a return of income is not required: whereas many of them are endowed; it would likewise appear desirable to ascertain the income from pew rents, just in the one case as in the other.

I beg respectfully to suggest that were the clergy required to make these returns direct to yourself, the request would in most instan- ces be complied with; but I have heard several express an insuperable objection to returns of income and schools expenses passing interme- diately through the hands of persons who in numerous instances are hostile to the established Church.

I am Hond. Sir, Respectfully yours J. W. Brooks Vicar

To Geo. Graham Esq. Registrar General

W. H. Walker, Rector

Additional remarks: Although an impression seems generally to prevail that these questions ... are not asked with any friendly feeling towards the Established Church, yet a sense of the duty of obedience which I owe to my Sovereign, has compelled me to answer them all, to the best of my ability, just as if such answers could be legally enforced. At the same time, however, I protest against such questions on such subjects, and from such a quarter which are not sanctioned by the Law; and I venture humbly to express my opinion, that these questions ought never to have been asked by her Majesty's Ministers, since they exclusively appertain to her Majesty's Bishops.
