Description
The Scottish Episcopal Church has often been referred to colloquially as 'The English Church', based on the observation that English people made up a significant proportion of its congregations and that the design of its church interiors, and its worship, align it closely with the Church of England. The prevailing stereotype of the Church is of 'a rural-based, crypto-Catholic, Anglocentric elite.'
