Socrates famously said, ‘An unexamined life is not worth living.’ Sometimes it’s easier not to ask questions but on the Alpha Course… we think life is worth exploring. The course is fun, relaxed and totally non-pressured (that’s probably why over 18 million people around the world have already done it!) Never been to church? Not sure what you believe? Maybe you gave up on church a long time ago. The course was designed for you or anyone who doesn’t go to church regularly. Ever wanted to explore the meaning of life or ask challenging questions about the Christian faith? Maybe you’re just curious about this church stuff and want to have a a nosy? Alpha doesn’t care about your background, it welcomes all those big questions and it’s free. Can’t say fairer than that right? Each session begins with food, snacks, that sort of thing, followed by a short talk looking at a different aspect of the Christian faith and time for discussion. Look out for the details about an Alpha course running Jan - Apr in the parish. If you are interested in finding out more contact the parish office: 01782 312 570.

  • APPENDIX 3 – Blythe Bridge & Forsbrook and Brown Edge & Endon 1. Blythe Bridge & Forsbrook
    Appendix 3: of Staffordshire Moorlands HEA APPENDIX 3 – Blythe Bridge & Forsbrook and Brown Edge & Endon 1. Blythe Bridge & Forsbrook 1.1 BFHECZ 1 – South of Stonehouses 1.1.1 Statement of heritage significance The zone covers 20ha and lies at around 170m AOD. The historic landscape character has been identified as planned enclosure which was probably created in the 18 th or 19 th century (cf. map 1). It is typified by the straight field boundaries and lanes laid out by surveyors. The surrounding landscape is also predominantly rectilinear in form, but does not have the overall regularity of this field system. This may consequently indicate not only enclosure at different periods but also differences in historic land ownership (cf. BFHECZ 2). The majority of the field boundaries have been removed although the overall regularity of the pattern survives. The zone lies within 200m of the line of a Roman road which connected Littlechester, Derbyshire and Chesterton (north of Newcastle under Lyme)1. There is consequently the potential for archaeological remains to be associated with Roman activity. However, besides a few prehistoric and Roman artefacts which have been found, little research has so far been carried on these periods within the wider area. 1.1.2 Heritage values: Evidential value: There is the potential for below ground remains to Low survive related to late prehistoric or Roman activity, which would provide new insights into the history not only of the Forsbrook/Drayton-in-the-Moors parishes, but of Staffordshire Moorlands more generally. Historical value: The overall character of the historic field system is Low still legible in the regularity of what remains.
