In 1743, the appointment of a new archbishop of York, Thomas
Herring (1693-1757), led to the creation of one of the most useful
historical records of parish life in eighteenth-century England.
This five-volume edition of visitation returns was first published
between 1928 and 1931. It contains the responses made by hundreds
of clergymen to the archbishop's enquiries as to the social and
religious character of their parishes. Incorporating records
detailing clerical matters and covering subjects ranging from the
number of families in residence to the popularity of Methodism and
the provision of schools, these volumes comprise, in the words of
the editors, 'a collection of facts which are valuable for the
economic and social, as well as the ecclesiastical history of
England'. Volume 4 opens with the entry for Averham, Newark and
concludes with the return for Stourton-in-the-Clay.
