This will be my last Magazine letter with you at Richmond Hudswell Downholme and Marske. It has been a great privilege to have served my Title Post with you and to share with Rev John the ministry of these parishes. Rev John has been a great support and I thank him for his gentle encouragement and the way we have worked together over the past four years. It has been a time I will always cherish and give thanks for. We have laughed together and on occasions cried together, we have prayed for you our parishioners and held you before God in our times of Morning Worship. As Priests of the Parish, there is much work going on that no one sees and often I would guess that many people fail to recognise the time that is put into our ministry. I have been surprised by some of the work we are involved with, which never entered into my mind set when I first set out on responding to the calling of priesthood. The calls that come late at night because someone is in need must be responded to, the many calls that come just as you think you are about to call it a day may result in another hour’s work that you were not catering for. All these calls are acted upon and often put pressure on an already busy schedule. This ministry must continue to go on because it is so important to the life of the church the people of God. It has been a great privilege to have been able to enter into this ministry and to share with you all the ups and downs of life within these parishes, but this is not carried out in isolation, because as Priests we are part of the Christian community the Body of Christ who work together in furthering God’s Kingdom. So it is we have Priest and People together serving our lord. So I thank you the people who have given of your time in the work of the church, you who have supported me in my ministry through prayer and friendship, you who have made my ministry so enjoyable. I hope that together we have grown in our faith and that our memories of these times together will always lift us when times may be difficult and I pray that you will all continue to support Reverend John in his ministry as he continues to support you in your callings. God Bless, Antony, Debbie and family. 4 September 2015 From Our Rector Farewell to Colin Hicks It is with much sadness that we say goodbye to Colin Hicks, our Director of Music who will be stepping down in September. Colin has been organist and choirmaster at St. Mary's for a total of 13 years. In that time, he built up the choir to 10 adults and 12 girls and boys. Five of the youngsters won a top national medal for musicianship, the coveted Gold award of the Royal School of Church Music. And at least two choristers used skills learned in the choir to enhance their GSCE results. Music has always played a big part in Colin’s life. At 16, he joined the band of the Royal Artillery in Woolwich and became organist at the Royal Military Academy Chapel there.

It needs to be read with those documents in mind, but has been designed to be self- standing (with links to other material in footnotes). Its publication marks a key phase in the process. It follows a statutory six month consultation period on the Draft Dioceses of Bradford, Ripon and Leeds and Wakefield Reorganisation Scheme, which resulted in over 100 representations. Published with this Report is the final version of this Draft Scheme on which the Diocesan Synods of the dioceses affected will need to vote next March. The Commission is very conscious that there has, quite properly, been a great deal of debate about its proposals over the last two years.

  • Bishop J C Ryle
    Bishop J C Ryle Eric Russell Liverpool became a diocese in 1880. For over 300 years south-west Lancashire had been part of the diocese of Chester, but with the rapid growth in population due to the industrial revolution, the building of the railways and the development of the vast docks system on the banks of the Mersey, voices were raised advocating a further division of the ancient diocese of Chester and the creation of a new diocese centred on Liverpool. Earlier in the century the diocese of Ripon had been reconstituted and Chester lost its Yorkshire territory. Another sub-division was made in 1847 when the diocese of Manchester was created to meet the religious needs of south Lancashire. Chester was again reduced in size when the counties of Cumberland and Westmoreland were transferred in 1856 to Carlisle. The diocese of Chester over the years had been considerably reduced in area, but due to the movement of workers to south-west Lancashire to meet the demands of industry, the population was constantly increasing and making it more and more difficult for the Church to fulfil her ministry. Victorian Liverpool Liverpool in the closing decades of the nineteenth century was fast becoming the hub of trade and commerce in the north-west of England. Manufacturers in the great industrial centres of Lancashire and Yorkshire exported their goods through the port. Iron and steel, machinery, textiles, manufactured goods and pottery were among the numerous items exported, and grain, raw cotton, sugar-cane, tobacco, timber and meat were some of the imported goods unloaded at the docks.

  • MS Dep 1980/1 Archives of the Dean and Chapter Of
    Handlist 47 LEEDS UNIVERSITY LIBRARY Archives of the Dean and Chapter of Ripon MS Dep 1980/1 The greater part of their accumulated archives was very generously deposited recently in the Brotherton Library of the University of Leeds by the Dean and Chapter of Ripon. It is hoped that by this arrangement the material will be more conveniently accessible to the majority of researchers. A few items, however, remain at Ripon because they are currently in use or are on permanent display to visitors. The cathedral was a parish church before it was raised to its present status and the parish registers are deposited at the North Yorkshire County Record Office, Northallerton. This list includes both the material remaining at Ripon and that at Northallerton. The archives of the Dean and Chapter have been listed twice before. A summary list was prepared for the Pilgrim Trust in 1946. A much fuller list was compiled for the National Register of Archives (Historical Manuscripts Commission) and issued in 1959. Upon the archives being inspected after their arrival at Leeds it was immediately apparent that the collection contained even more than had been listed in 1959, and it was decided with the ready concurrence of the Commission, that a new listing would be essential. This new list has been designed to avoid as much confusion as possible. It follows the style and numeration of the 1959 list and new entries have been inserted as close as possible to suitable places within its original framework. Some documents had identifications unrelated to the serial numbers used in that list; they have now been numbered to correspond and the additional items have been given appropriate subdivisions within the original notation.

  • IT Is Regrettable But, Perhaps, Inevitable That Very Few Scries
    75 REVENUES AND DISBURSEMENTS OF THE BISHOPS OF CHESTER, 1754 TO 1809. By J. H. E. Bennett, F.S.A. Read 14 December 1946. T is regrettable but, perhaps, inevitable that very few scries I of records covering considerable periods have been preserved in unbroken continuity. Many losses have been brought about by storage in unsuitable places where the documents have been attacked by damp and vermin. Some have been destroyed by outbreaks of fire and by lack of appreciation of their value. Still further, others have been taken out of the care of appointed custodians, with or without consent, and have not been returned. A case of the last description was the subject of several articles in the Cheshire Sheaf of 1884 (is., iii, 199 et seq.}. Two register books, one a very large one, relating to the affairs of the Chester diocese in the seventeenth century, were discovered among the effects of a clergyman of the county of Durham. These passed into the possession of a Durham contributor to the Sheaf, and he contributed a number of extracts which, unfortunately, were never completed. It would be interesting to know the present whereabouts of these valuable records. Another instance of laxity in the care of the Chester episcopal manuscripts has come to light recently. A number of eighteenth and early nineteenth century records relating to the diocese were acquired by Mr. Raymond Richards, F.S.A., who has generously presented them to the writer, and they form the basis of this paper. In medieval days the enormous diocese of Lichfield, sometimes styled Lichfield and Coventry, and occasionally Chester, ranged over ten counties, and Cheshire with that tract of land between the Mersey and the Ribble, which is included in the Cheshire section of the Domesday Survey, formed only part of it.

In territorial terms it was a time of loss. The diocese of Ripon was founded in 1836 taking with it some of the most heavily populated new industrial regions of West Yorkshire, Bradford, Halifax and Leeds. By 1836 the archbishop had also lost his peculiar jurisdiction over Hexhamshire and in 1837 the archdeaconry of Nottingham was transferred to the diocese of Lincoln. Even though a time of territorial loss for the diocese, it was a period of increased church building. When changing expectations of the parochial role of the clergy, the demand for clerical residence and the provision of a living wage for stipendary curates and increased parochial demands for preaching and the sacraments within a broadening definition of parochial work are added to this the period is seen to be one of repeated adaptation and change. ORDINATION- THE SOURCES From the middle of the eighteenth century onwards the information recorded in the York Institution Act Books can be validated and expanded by reference to the bundles of papers submitted by the candidates themselves prior to their taking orders.

  • KIRKBY RAVENSWORTH: Geographical and Historical Information from the Year 1890
    KIRKBY RAVENSWORTH: Geographical and Historical information from the year 1890. Wapentake and Petty Sessional Division of Gilling West - Electoral Division of Gilling - Poor Law Union and County Court District of Richmond - Rural Deanery of Richmond West - Archdeaconry of Richmond - Diocese of Ripon. This parish, called also Kirkby Hill, lies north-west of Richmond. It includes the townships of Kirkby Hill, Dalton, Gayles, New Forest, part of Newsham, Ravensworth, and Whashton, containing, according to the rate books, 14,724 acres. This area is exclusive of open moorlands, of which there are upwards of 10,000 acres. The population in 1881 was 1,045. In the western part of the parish extensive moorlands prevail, and the scenery is of a dreary, monotonous character; but in the rest, the surface is pleasingly varied with hill and dale. The soil is generally fertile. Freestone is abundant, and copper ore has been found among the hills. Skirting the parish on the north east is the old Roman road, called Watling Street, which afforded a means of communication between the stations of Cataractonium (Catterick) and Lavatrae (Bowes), and passed thence into Westmoreland. KIRKBY HILL township, the boundaries of which have been recently re- arranged, contains 235 acres, and is valued, for rateable purposes, at £331. The landowners are Christopher Cradock, Esq., J.P., Hartforth Hall (lord of the manor), and Eleanor, Duchess Dowager of Northumberland. The village is seated on an eminence about five miles N.W. of Richmond. The Church (St. Peter and St. Felix) "mounted upon a rock" is an interesting structure, built in 1397, on the site of a former one which, there is reason to believe, dated from Saxon times.
