Henry Green was part of what he himself describes as the 'Great Migration' from rural to industrial communities which took place in the 1870s and 80s.

For most of his working life he was a Durham pitman in the Crook district, but even though he left at the age of 16, he always thought of rural Norfolk as 'home'. What gave his life continuity and coherence was his religion.
