III. an ACCOUNT of the PARISH of CHURCH MINSHULL, in CHESHIRE. by the Rev 85 III. AN ACCOUNT OF THE PARISH OF CHURCH MINSHULL, IN CHESHIRE. By the Rev. Oeo. B. Sandford, M.A., Vicar. [The present article is given as a specimen of the valuable contributions which the Paro­ chial Clergy of the District can give to the Society. The Society cannot but be deeply indebted to the writer for the very careful and lucid manner in which he has given such a mass of details ; when the collections of the Historic Society have as­ sumed such a character as to justify the publication of a History of the District, Mr. Sandford's labours will be duly appreciated.] CHURCH MINSHULL. The most ancient name of this place was Manessele or Maneshale,* and in the Confirmation Charter to the Abbey at Cumbermere, by King Henry III., it is written Munchulf.-|- Church Minshull is the appellation common to both a Parish and a Village. Concerning the Village we will speak presently; but it seems most in order that we give account in the first instance of the Parish its locality, its appearance, and the several landed proprietors to whom it has belonged. The Parish of Church Minshull consists of a single Townsliip, and is " described in an old MS. in the British Museum (No. 2115, Harl. MSS.) as being within the limits of the forest of Mara and Mondrem."J It con­ tains altogether 2,280 acres 28 perches of land. It is bounded on the north by the Townships of Darnhall and Weaver, and on the south by Cholmondeston and Aston in Mondrem; Wetenhall is to the west, and Wimboldsley, Minshull Vernon, and Leightou to the east. The higher parts of the Parish are mostly flat, and the soil is clay; but on the banks of the Weaver and the Ash Brook, which separate it from adjoining Townships, and also by the course of a small stream, called by the inhabi­ tants Hell Brook, which commences at Paradise Green and empties itself into the Weaver; the land is rich and undulated, presenting to the eye many very picturesque landscapes. There are 32 acres of plantation, and » Doomsday. Lysons' Magna Britannia, vol. ii. part ii. p. 320. t Bugdule's Monasticou, vol. v. p. 324. J Lyson's Mag. Brit. vol. ii. part ii. p. 400. Ormerod, vol. ii. p. 50. " The entire jurisdiction of the forest was usurped by the Dones of Utkinton. Richard Done claimed to have ... for the keeping of the said forestership . one undcrforestor in the village of Minshull." Id. p. 31. 86 foxes are abundant. The climate is very healthy, and the neighbourhood has been remarkable for the longevity of its inhabitants. The burial of John Damme is recorded in the Parish Books, Feb. 20, 1648, " being of the age of seven score and fourteen," i e., 154 years : and in A.D. 1770, there is the name of James Archer, aged 105 years. The Registers have been examined between Jan. 1, 1813, and the present day, Dec. 24, 1849, and it appears that there have been altogether 564 funerals, and that of these, 128 were of persons beyond the age of 70. Or, to describe,this with greater minuteness: of these 128, the numbers between 70 and 80 years of age were 68; of persons more than 80, but not 90, 54; and 6 persons of more advanced life than 90. There are several exceedingly good springs of clear water ; and since January 1842, when the writer first made his abode there, the locality has never been visited with any virulent fever or infectious sickness. When the cholera desolated the neighbouring towns, in 1832, there was not a single case of death from it here ; and during the late season, when Nantwich was so heavily afflicted, Minshull and the adjoining Townships have been spared. There were two deaths from English cholera in the Parish, and several instances of violent diarrhoea, but no case of Asiatic cholera was returned. POPULATION. In 1801, there was a return* of 60 houses ; 79 families; 417 persons. In 1810,t males 120; females 138; total 258. In 1821, males 255 ; females 273 ; total 528. In 1831, males 238; females 230; total 468. In 1841, males 227 ; females 237 ; total 464. There are at this present time 80 dwelling-houses in the Parish. PROPRIETORS. " Isdem Willelmus tenet Manessele; Levenot tenuit, et liber homo fuit. Ibi una hida geldabilis: terra est una caruca; ibi unus radman, 11 servi, & 11 bordarii habent uuam carucam: ibi una acra prati, silva una leuva longa, et una lata, et iv haue, et aira accipitris. Valebat et valet iv solidos; wasta fuit," Domesday, apud Onnerod, vol. iii. p. 180. * Lysons, Mag. Brit. vol. ii. part ii. p. 339. t Ormerod's History of Cheshire, vol. iii. p. 151. 87 At the Norman conquest almost every Saxon proprietor was ejected: but it is recorded in Domesday that " William Malbedeng, Baron of Nantwich, held Eteshale, Church Miushull, Minshull Venion, and Sproston."* And in the Confirmation Charter, which Earl Kanulff Swe to Combermere Abbey, in the year 1280, we read of William Malbank, and Hugh, his father, as connected with the neighbourhood. As early, however, as the reign of Henry I. mention is made of a family which took its surname from this place; and two noble houses have sprung from Adam and William, the sons of Augustine de Minshull, who lived about that time. A member of this race, Michael | de Miushull, " served against Saladin under King Richard I., and there won the arms and crest of his family.']] A pedigree of both these lines is subjoined, and we see them again united after the lapse of many centuries by the marriage of Thomas Cholmoudeley, of Vale Eoyal, Esq., with Elizabeth, the only daughter and heiress of John Minshull, of Minshull, Esq. Lord Dela- mere is the present representative of this ancient family; but the estate of Church Minshull was sold during the latter part of the last century, and purchased by John, the younger son of Sir Thomas Brooke, the fourth Baronet, of Norton, who left it to his great-nephew, Mr. Thomas Brooke, whose son, Henry, is the present Squire: a gentleman universally esteemed for very many good qualities, and beloved for his kindness and generosity. THE MANOR OF MINSHTJLL. The family of the -eldest branch, the descendants of Adam, the first son of Augustine de Minshull, retained the name and estate until the * Ormerod, vol. iii. p. 3. + Dugdale, vol. v. p. 827. } " Among several other armorial ensigns dated from the battle of Ascolon, are .... the arms and crest of Minshull of Cheshire, ' Azure, an estoile issuant out of a crescent, in base argent.' Crest, an Eastern Warrior, kneeling on one knee, habited gules, legs and arms in mail proper: at his side a scyinitar sable, hiked or; on his head a turban, with a crescent and feather argent, presenting with his sinister hand, a crescent of the last. These bearings were assigned to Michael de Minshull, for his valour on that oc­ casion, but the particular nature of his exploits is not related." Lower's Curiosities of Heraldry, p. 168. Ormerod states that the crest was "the Sultan Saladin kneeling on his knee, and holding a crescent." || Ormerod, vol. iii. p. 181. 88 reign of King Richard II. In the reign of Edward II., Richard de Minshull married Alice de Praers of Barthomley, by whom he became possessed of Aston Hall and other property in Aston in Mondrem.* Both Minshull and Aston, however, passed to another house, when, in the reign of Richard II., Joanna,! the sole daughter and Heiress of Henry de Min­ shull was married to Edmund, a younger son of Sir Thomas Button. And again, they passed by marriage in the reign of Henry VIII., when Richard Cholmondeley, | of Cholmondeley, Esq., married Elinor, the youngest daughter of Sir Thomas Button, who had these estates for her inheritance. MINSHULL HALL. The descendants of William, the second son of Augustine de Minshull, retained possession of Minshull Hall, together with another messuage and about 60 acres of land,]] until the death of John Minshull, Esq., in the year 1654, and the union of the two families by the marriage of Thomas Cholmondeley, of Vale Royal, Esq., with Elizabeth, his only daughter. In the reign of Edward IV., Peter Minshull allied himself by marriage with Jane, daughter and heiress of John de Bebington,§ with whom he became Lord of " a fine seat" at Tranmore, called Derby House,1F and "a great store of fair possessions" at Bebington. As late as the year 1629 there was "in the third window, on the north side of the Church at Bebington, this coat, quarterly, 1 & 4 azure, three stars argent, in the centre point a crescent of the second, Minshull of Minshull: 3 & 4, sable, three bucks' heads cahossed, argent, for Bebing-ton: underneath 'orate pro bono statu Edw'i Minshull & Eliz. uxoris ejus.'"** Honour­ able mention is made of the last member of this house in King's Vale * Lysons, vol. ii. part ii. p. 471. t " Inq. p. m. 11 Rich.

  • Tarporley News 28Th Feb 2019
    Issue #142| 28th February 2019 | FREE Welcome to this 2nd special Tarporley Parish Council edition of Tarporley News - our new way of giving the village accessible and up to date information about issues affecting Tarporley and the extensive work the Parish Council is doing on behalf of the local community. Following the sad news that this newspaper’s founders - Emma Hunter and Victoria Williams - are moving on, we had feared that this would be our final special edition. However, we were delighted to learn last week that our friend and former Parish Councillor, Tina Royles, will be taking over this weekly, free paper from May 2nd. Tina will also take on these quarterly Tarporley Parish Council editions. We wish Tina well and would urge everyone in the village to support her as this precious village commodity enters a new era. Tarporley Parish Council Care Home Proposal Latest Liberty Properties - the company that wants to build a 65-bed ‘Nursing Care Facility’ and public car park in the centre of Tarporley - is hoping to submit a full planning application within the next few months. Following last year’s public consultation, a Cheshire West and Chester Heritage Officer has also offered feedback on the scheme, which would see land to the south of St Helen’s Parish Church being developed. Following a stipulation in the Tarporley Neighbourhood Plan about the need for car parking, the proposal includes a large public car park - with 85 spaces - in addition to a 23-space separate car park for the care home. Liberty Properties predict the ‘Class C2 Nursing Care Facility’, which would also offer dementia care, would provide 64 jobs.

  • A Walk from Church Minshull
    A Walk to Church Minshull Aqueduct Marina photo courtesy of Bernie Stafford Aqueduct Marina, the starting point for this walk, was opened in February 2009. The marina has 147 berths, a shop and a café set in beautiful Cheshire countryside. With comprehensive facilities for moorers, visiting boaters and anyone needing to do, or have done, any work on their boat, the marina is an excellent starting point for exploring the Cheshire canal system. Starting and finishing at Church Minshull Aqueduct Marina, this walk takes in some of the prettiest local countryside as well as the picturesque village of Church Minshull and the Middlewich Branch of the Shropshire Union Canal. Some alternative routes are also included at the end to add variation to the walk which is about five or six miles, depending on the exact route taken. Built to join the Trent and Mersey Canal with the Chester Canal, the Middlewich Branch carried mainly coal, salt and goods to and from the potteries. Built quite late in the canal building era, like so many other canals, this canal wasn’t as successful as predicted. Today, however, it is a very busy canal providing an essential link between the Trent and Mersey Canal at Middlewich and the Llangollen Canal as well as being part of the Four Counties Ring and linking to the popular Cheshire Ring boating route. The Route Leaving the marina, walk to the end of the drive and turn north (right) onto the B5074 Church Minshull road and walk to the canal bridge. Cross the canal and turn down the steps on the right onto the towpath, then walk back under the bridge, with the canal on your left.

  • The Story of the 1986 Domesday Project
    The Story of the 1986 Domesday Project In 1986, 900 years after William the Conqueror’s original Domesday Book, the BBC published the Domesday Project . The project was probably the most ambitious attempt ever to capture the essence of life in the United Kingdom. Over a million people contributed to this digital snapshot of the country. People were asked to record what they thought would be of interest in another 1000 years. The whole of the UK was divided into 23,000 4x3km areas called Domesday Squares or “D- Blocks”. Church Minshull was d-block 364000-360000. Schools and community groups surveyed over 108,000 square km of the UK and submitted more than 147,819 pages of text articles and 23,225 amateur photos, cataloguing what it was like to live, work and play in their community. Website address: http://www.bbc.co.uk/history/domesday/dblock/GB-364000-360000 The project was about documenting everyday life - the ordinary, rather than the extraordinary and residents of Church Minshull in 1986, responded with their written accounts… The categories below contain the Church Minshull snapshot of life in 1986… The Village Church Minshull is a village situated at a bend in the R. Weaver. It was called Maneshale (Old English = nook or corner) in the first Domesday book. The village is the centre of the area in which agriculture, mainly dairy farming, is the principle industry. There are 286 people on the electoral role, the main centres of population being the village and the mobile home site at Lea Green. So far, there are not too many commuters living here, but there has been a noticeable increase in the turn-over of property in the last five years.

  • Willington Civil Parish
    WILLINGTON CIVIL PARISH Information – 2016 This drawing is reproduced with the kind permission of KADRAS. The artist was Anne Saul and the drawing was first printed in the book 'The Story of Kelsall' by Elspeth Thomas This booklet is produced by Willington Parish Council for delivery to all households in the Parish. If you leave the Parish please leave this booklet in your premises for the next occupier. Whilst every effort is made to ensure the facts are accurate the Parish Council cannot be held responsible for any errors. Brief History The name Willington is derived from Wynflaeda's farm. This female name is of Anglo- Saxon origin and she must have been an important person for her name to be enshrined in the name of Willington. In the Doomsday Enquiry, the settlement is noted as “1 hide paying tax, Land for 2 ploughs, 2 villagers have 1 plough; woodland half a league long and 1 acre wide, wasted, value before 1066 8 shillings now 10 shillings.” Wynflaeda choose a good spot to settle, the area was secluded and sheltered by the ridge to the north, the soil fertile and with a good supply of spring water. In particular water was obtained from a spring below Rough Low known as Pearl Hole. For many years this was the main water supply for the village. Later, during Norman times, the land was given to the Abbot of Stanlow Abbey on the banks of the River Mersey. The Abbot had to pay 10 shillings rent annually in Chester. Eventually the monks abandoned Stanlow due to flooding and were granted a site at Whalley in the Ribble Valley where they built an Abbey.

  • Bostock Conservation Area Appraisal
    Vale Royal Borough Council BOSTOCK CONSERVATION AREA APPRAISAL Conservation Areas were introduced by the Civic Amenities Act of 1967, and are now an accepted part of Town and Country Planning legislation and practice. Local Authorities are required to identify “areas of special architectural or historic interest, the character of which it is desirable to preserve or enhance”. They are also under a duty to review existing designations from time to time. It has been recognised that if the special interest, character and appearance of a conservation area is to be retained, it must be managed. The first task in this process is to define and analyse the special characteristics that justify the designation of the conservation area. This is achieved by carrying out a Conservation Area Appraisal. The character of an area depends upon its historic background, the architectural quality and interest of its buildings, their materials and detailing, the way they relate to each other, the line of the highway, the quality of the landscape, trees and open spaces and a variety of unique features. A Conservation Area Appraisal provides a description of those elements that contribute to and define the character of the conservation area. It also provides the basis for development plan policies and development control decisions, both within and adjacent to the Conservation Area boundary. Subsequently the appraisal will provide the background for proposals to preserve or enhance the area. It may also identify development opportunities. Therefore the Government has stated that appraisals are considered to be essential for all existing and proposed conservation areas. Vale Royal Borough Council understands the importance of involving the local community in the appraisal process.
