Preaching, word and sacrament : Scottish church interiors 1560-1860
This study follows on from Yate's standard work Buildings, Faith and Worship: the Liturgical Arrangement of Anglican Churches 1600-1900 (OUP 1991, revised edition 2000) and Liturgical Space in Western Europe since the Reformation (Ashgate, 2008) to provide the first detailed study of Scottish post-Reformation church interiors for fifty years. In the intervening period many of the buildings described by George Hay have been demolished, converted to non-ecclesiastical use or liturgically reordered. However, this study goes further to include many surviving examples not noted by Hay, and extends his work further into the nineteenth century, with a detailed study of buildings up to 1860, and with a more general consideration of later nineteenth and early twentieth century church architecture in Scotland. The detailed study of developments in Scotland, especially those in the Presbyterian churches, are set in the context of comparative developments in other parts of Britain and Europe, especially those in the Reformed churches of the Netherlands and Switzerland to create a groundbreaking new study by an established author.

Anglican Attitudes to Roman Catholicism in the Late Eighteenth and Early Nineteenth Centuries
This chapter focuses on Charles John Ellicott's contribution to biblical scholarship in the nineteenth century, immense though that was. The decades of the 1850s and 1860s were unsettled ones in the world of biblical scholarship and Ellicott was profoundly disturbed by and hostile towards trends which he felt undermined the authority of Scripture. Groups towards which Ellicott was particularly hostile were the English Church Union and the Society of the Holy Cross, both of which he suspected of Romanising. The first Lambeth Conference had been held under the presidency of Archbishop Longley in 1867, with Ellicott as secretary, an office he was also to discharge at the second and third Conferences, in 1878 and 1888. Ellicott's personal passionate concern that infidelity' should be confronted and challenged cannot be doubted, but he was not willing to countenance the impotence of the Anglican Communion's leadership being made public.
