When we were in, we were higher than a cat's back . . . I think I went to a low church service maybe twice in my life.

You know what they say,

High Church, in the modern sense goes with the Liturgiucal movment that began about the time of the Tractarian Movement. Newman was never much into liturgy. I think that Richard Church was the leader of this. Started with surplices and when from there. Now services are much more elegant than a Catholic mass, Despite the 1979 Prayer book, the language is still much more graceful than our English mass. I declare that the order was out back in 1972 to make the translation of the Latin as flat as possible,
