Patrick Griffin, ‘Defining the Limits of Britishness: The “new” British History and the Meaning of the Revolution Settlement in Ireland for Ulster’s Presbyterians’, Journal of British Studies 39 (2000), pp. 263–87, locates that community’s experience into the eighteenth century in terms of the ‘Revolution’s unrevolutionary nature’ in terms of their legal standing, whilst affording them a ‘language with which they could respond to their problems’ (p. 266).

Suggestions that the English ‘toleration’ act of 1689 might be extended to Ireland by been quickly entangled with the idea of also extended the test, duplicating both sides of the English arrangement.

Beckett, Protestant Dissent in Ireland, 1687–1780 (London, 1954).
