    Summary from The Daily Post Newspaper Birmingham 26th November 1880, Fr.Richard Enraght entering Warwick Prison in chains, handing a bag entitled, Paraphernalia of Ritualism to his curate Revd Warwick Elwin. The Daily Post Newspaper article of November 22nd 1880 is attached to the wall behind Fr Enraght states What is the Use ? . The prosecutions must prove futile, because the doctrines aimed at may be legally taught by ministers of the Church of England. It has been decided that baptismal regeneration may be lawfully taught it has also been decided that a real presence in the Sacrament of the Lord s Supper may also be lawfully taught. As to the assertion of a priesthood, the Prayer Book is full of it and the Low Churchmen are conscious of the difficulty of explaining it away. If then, the doctrine remains and must remain for no one seriously proposes to expunge it by legal process of what use is it to go on prosecuting and imprisoning clergymen who insist upon the use of symbols as a means of enforcing a doctrine which they may preach without legal hindrance, from one end of the year to the other?

The ritual reason why Walker wrote and edited two editions of the book The Ritual Reason Why 1st Edition, 1866 Second enlarged Edition, 1868 published by J.T. Hayes of 17 Henrietta Street , Covent Garden . This book was designed to give a rationale of ceremonial worship in the Church of England . Walker was moved by the conviction that much of the opposition to ritual in the Anglican Church was due to a mistaken or inadequate view of its meaning and intention. Further, he noted that Scripture itself teaches us the duty of instructing the people in the rationale of divine ceremonial the objective end of which it is that it may be a sign among us, that when our children ask  what mean ye by these things, we may Answer them.

  1. Central Churchmanship

    Portal Anglicanism Unreferenced date July 2009 Central Churchmanship describes those who adhere to the middle way in the Church of England , being neither High Church nor Low Church in their liturgical preferences. The term came into use in the late nineteenth century when traditional High Churchmen decided to distance themselves from Anglo Catholicism and Ritualism . Central Churchmen value both the official liturgies of the Church of England , which they clothe in a moderate amount of ceremonial and a characteristically Anglican way of doing theology that is rooted in the Bible, and the Councils and Creeds of the Early Church, whilst acknowledging the contribution made by the English Reformation. In their theological thinking they steer a middle course between the Anglo Catholic and Evangelical parties, both of which are perceived as being extreme by Central Churchmen. Perhaps the best known exponent of the Central Churchman position in the twentieth century was Geoffrey Francis Fisher Archishop of Canterbury 1945 61. Many other well known English Bishops including Robert Stopford , Henry Campbell , and Mervyn Haigh also favoured a Central Churchmanship approach, as a way of defusing tensions within their dioceses, and as a way of promoting a brand image for the Church of England. Since the 1970s Central Churchmanship as a distinct school of thought and practice within the Church of England has been in decline. This is mainly due to the closure or merger of some Theological Colleges that used to favour the Central position namely, Wells, Lincoln, and Tenbury Wells and a drift towards Liberalism, or Affirming Catholicism in others.
