From the middle ages to the present day the houses of local clergy
- parsonages, vicarages and rectories - have been among the most
significant buildings in parishes throughout England.
Architecturally some of the best and most fully documented domestic
buildings, their history is that of the small and medium sized
house, from medieval vernacular to the bespoke designs of leading
Victorian architects and the more modest homes of today's clergy.
The lives lived in the parsonage, factual and fictional (from
Austen to Trollope and the televised struggles of 'Rev' in London's
East End in the 2010s) reveal not just a building, but a hub of
spiritual and secular activity, at the heart of local life and
linking it to wider, national history. In this engaging
introduction, Kate Tiller brings together the architectural and
social histories of the parsonage, drawing on the evidence of
buildings, archival and literary accounts, and contemporary and
modern images, to depict parsonages, their occupants and how their
histories may be traced.
