In 1926, a hundred years ago to the day, if not the minute, a vote to create an Anglican Diocese of Shrewsbury, with Shrewsbury Abbey becoming its cathedral, was defeated by a single vote in the House of Lords. It was alone amongst the six new dioceses proposed in the 1920’s not to come to fruition. Historical expert The Rev Canon Dr William Price, Anglican priest and sometime Lecturer in Church History at the University of Wales, Lampeter, will give an illustrated talk focussing on the various attempts to create an Anglican Diocese of Shrewsbury, dating back to Henry VIII himself at the Reformation, this attempt in 1926 and again as recently as 1988. The talk promises to be fascinating for anyone interested in church or social history in Shropshire, across the Dioceses of Lichfield and Hereford, and for miles around. The evening in the Abbey will begin with wine and nibbles on arrival from 6.30pm. William’s talk will follow at 7pm. His presentation will be shown on a large screen and amplified through the sound system/loop. Click on the event title above to go to the page where you will find the ticket website link.
