This lecture explore various themes and places churches in the contexts of what is evidently an accelerating secularization of British society. Why were churches once so popular and widely used - and why have these things altered so profoundly? Are we able to identify patterns of closure across the churches - and, if so, how might we interpret them? And where might the present patterns be taking us all?
