The Plymouth Brethren are a Christian Evangelical religious movement that began in Dublin, Ireland and England in the late 1820s.

The Brethren are divided into "Open Brethren" and "Exclusive Brethren", as well as an outshoot of the Exclusive Brethren called the "Closed Brethren"http://www.reachouttrust.org/articles/othergrp/exbreth.htm. The Exclusive Brethren maintain a very isolationist and traditional view, with many of their children home schooled, a strict dress code for church meetings, and members commonly self employed or working for Christian organisations.http://www.brethrenonline.org/faqs/PBHIST.HTM

The Open and Closed Brethren differ on few theological issues and often, no clear distinction is made between the two by the general public. The main difference is in openness to visitors, that is, the Open Brethren allow anyone who is a believer to participate in the Lord's Supper (communion) while the Closed generally require a "letter of commendation" as discussed below. The Closed Brethren also will usually have a back row set up for anyone who does not have this letter so that the individual may observe, though not participate, in the "morning meeting" as they call the communion service.
