Description

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility.

The scheme of the work is this It opens with a chapter seeking to show that Colne is a town of Roman origin.

Chapters II. And III. Deal with its mediaeval and modern history, and contain a large amount of information, hitherto unpublished.

Chapter IV. Relates to the old church, a building on whose history antiquaries rightly love to linger.

Chapter V. Is devoted to the Colne incumbents, men who in their time have played an important part in local history.

Myself a Church man, I have not hesitated to point out the faults and frailties of some of them.

Chapter VI. Gives the history of some of our best-known buildings, and contains a short account of good Archbishop Tillotson.
