Arthur Stanton (priest)

Arthur Henry Stanton (1839–1913) was an English Anglo-Catholic priest in the latter decades of the 19th and early 20th centuries.

He attracted devoted supporters and horrified critics in equal measure.

[6] At the end of his life he was offered, and rejected, a prebendal stall in St Paul's Cathedral.

Fellow clergy escorted his coffin as it was carried on a wheeled bier through the crowded streets from his Holborn church to the London Necropolis railway station, Waterloo for transport to Brookwood Cemetery near Woking where a crowd of 1,000 had assembled for his interment.
