Ecclesiastical Household

The Ecclesiastical Household is part of the Royal Household of the sovereign of the United Kingdom. Reflecting the constitutional position of the Church of Scotland within Scotland, the Royal Household in Scotland makes its own ecclesiastical arrangements (see below for details). The term 'Ecclesiastical Household' (in official use) dates only from the 1920s, but its component structures and personnel have been part of the Royal Household for centuries.
