abstract
  • The Sarum Rite (more properly called Sarum Use) was a variant of the Roman Rite widely used for the ordering of Christian public worship, including the Mass and the Divine Office, in Great Britain and Ireland before the English Reformation. Various parts of Britain and Ireland developed local variants of the Western Liturgy: the Sarum Rite was originally the local form used in the Cathedral and Diocese of Salisbury; it later became prevalent throughout much of Great Britain and Ireland, particularly in southern England. Although abandoned after the 16th century, it was also a notable influence on the pattern of Anglican liturgy represented in the Book of Common Prayer. Occasional interest in and attempts at restoration of the liturgy by Anglicans and Roman Catholics have not produced a general revival, however.
