Faith Survey, faithsurvey.co.uk, compiling British Social Attitudes survey figures

A Faith Survey compilation of British Social Attitudes survey figures on Christianity in the United Kingdom, stating that 17 percent of persons identified as Anglican in the 2014 wave of the survey, a fall of 23 percentage points since the survey began in 1983, and that the Church of England's estimated adherent population nearly halved between 1983 and 2014, from 16.5 million to 8.6 million.

A third-party page compiling the British Social Attitudes survey's own published figures rather than the survey itself; undated on the page. The same one-remove standing already given to the CPS India blog compiling India's Census of India Jain figures: the underlying figures are the survey's, read here at a remove rather than from a NatCen table that could be parsed directly, since the BSA 36 full report PDF returned unreadable binary content when checked.
