Were there heresy trials in the Consistory Courts in England in the mid 19th century?

The Church of England, which had previously dealt with heresy through ecclesiastical courts, shifted towards a more tolerant approach. The last significant heresy trial in England occurred in the early 19th century, and by the mid-1800s, the focus of the Consistory Courts had moved away from heresy to matters of church governance and discipline.
