Thomas Benson Pollock (1836 – 1896)

Thomas Benson Pollock (1836 – 1896) was a British writer and Anglican priest born at Strathallan, on the Isle of Man and educated at Trinity College Dublin. He served as a curate in Leek, Staffordshire, and Stamford Hill, Middlesex.

In 1865 together with his brother, Rev. James S Pollock, they worked at St Alban’s Mission in Birmingham. The Pollocks were followers of the influential Oxford Movement of the Church of England, bringing the Gospel to poor areas of large cities, which were often in areas where there were few schools, no churches, little sanitation and much disease. Their initial ministry met much opposition, but they built up a thriving church and parochial life at some cost to the health of both men.
