An ancient parish refers to a historical ecclesiastical division that was established in medieval England, typically linked to a local church and its community. These parishes served as the primary unit of religious administration and often coincided with civil boundaries. Over time, many ancient parishes became important local governance units, influencing social and cultural structures in their regions. Today, they are often recognized for their historical significance and may still exist as administrative entities.
