Charles Green

Active in the Church of England and identified in library records as rector of Burgh Castle, he is best remembered today for writing about the history and landscape of Norfolk. His known works include The History, Antiquities, and Geology of Bacton in Norfolk (1842), which shows a strong interest in local history, place, and geology.

He also published A Letter to the Rev. C. N. Wodehouse, Canon of Norwich, a response in an ecclesiastical debate about church subscription. That combination of parish life, historical curiosity, and theological argument suggests a writer rooted in both the everyday work of the clergy and the intellectual disputes of his time.

Reliable biographical details about his personal life are limited in the sources I could confirm during this search, so much of his story survives through his books rather than through fuller modern biographies.
