b. The body of parishioners meeting in this way and constituting a parochial board or council of management; select vestry (Obsolete exc. Historical) (see quots. a1836, 1906). This body had formerly the administration and management of the whole of the business affairs of the parish; but its authority was later restricted to certain temporal matters connected with the parish church, its former powers being invested in the Parish or District Council. In England the sole remaining power of the vestry is the election of churchwardens, its other ecclesiastical powers having been transferred to the parochial church council and the annual parochial church meeting.
