Francis Gastrell (1662 1725) served as Bishop of Chester from 1714
until his death. During this time, he compiled historical notes on
his diocese from a range of medieval and contemporary sources. His
survey contains detailed information on parishes, including their
sizes, populations and economies. The notes also provide invaluable
data on administrative matters such as the development of the towns
within the diocese, notably including records of acts of charity
and records of the grammar schools and their governors, finances
and statutes. This 1990 publication, prepared by L. A. S. Butler,
is the first printed edition of the notes relating to the Yorkshire
parishes that had been transferred within the archdeaconry of
Richmond to the bishopric of Chester. With full editorial
apparatus, and thorough indexes of persons, clergy and places, this
work stands as an important resource for church, social and local
historians.
