Description
Slide 2. Henry Batt pulled down and sold the bell in Birstall Church, and demolished the Vicarage house hitherto standing in the churchyard. However, in the reign of James the First the successor of Henry Batt, the spoileator, had a decree for compensation made against him, and to this day a fine imposed for the sacrilegious act is paid to the Vicar of Birstall, by the owner of Oakwell Hall.
