In the year 1700 a large number of the population of the English county of Yorkshire attended a place of worship on a regular basis. By 2011 the national census showed that 60% of people in Yorkshire still identified themselves as Christian but that only 6% regularly attended a place of worship.
Sheila McGeown traces this dramatic decline in the fortunes of organised religion in the county over the last three hundred years and chronicles the decline and fall of the various faiths.
