What reading level is The Church And the Land Being An Account of Inquiries Into the Condition of So book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
43 have already referred, that in Peterborough the average area of glebe attached to each living is 129 acres, while in Rochester it is little more than five acres.
As long ago as 1881, the fall in the rent of the land was so generally felt that a committee was appointed by the Diocesan Conference to report on the matter, and this committee collected returns from 336 incumbents. Even then it was found that 9373 acres were on the hands of 79 clergy from inability to find tenants, and that glebe ...rents had undergone a reduction of about 25 per cent, between 1870 and 1880. There were two dis- advantages which had been felt in a good many cases — first, that there was too much arable land in proportion to grass, a good deal of old pasture having been improvidently ploughed up when wheat was dear ; and, secondly, that there was often no dwelling-house (apart from the parsonage), and sometimes not even any farm buildings, on the glebe, so that it could not be let separately, and was therefore at the mercy of the neighbour- ing farmer.
