British Reformation Society. A Map shewing the situation of each Roman Catholic Chapel, College or Seminary, throughout England, Scotland, and Wales. According to published accounts and also the present stations of the Reformation Society. To Jany. 1833, engraved map with contemporary hand colouring, old folds, slight spotting and offsetting, inset map of the county of Lancashire, 580 x 370 mm A scarce map; published by the British Reformation Society in 1833, only four years after Parliament had passed the Roman Catholic Relief Act 1829. The Act finally lifted the long-standing political and civil restrictions on Roman Catholics in England & Wales and Scotland (but notably not in Ireland). Most of the Protestant population were indifferent to the new freedoms, but the more radical Protestant elements - led by the Reformation Society - who were opposed to Catholic Emancipation, were vociferously vocal and sought for a time to reverse the reforms. They published this map as a form of propaganda to show the spread of Catholicism throughout the nation. The map includes the locations of Reformation Society Stations which were set up to supposedly place a check against Catholic activities. A somewhat sinister anti-Catholic map, demonstrating the religous intolerance which still abounded in the 19th century. (1)
