  • The Chronicle Charnock Richard
    The Chronicle Charnock Richard The Magazine of Christ Church Charnock Richard December / January 2018 FROM FATHER ANDREW My Dear Friends, As Christmas approaches and everyone feels a little more charitable, I am reminded that a couple of years ago the Archbishop of Canterbury warned vicars against filling their sermons with “moral claptrap” about being “a bit nicer” to everyone. The Most Revd Justin Welby said religion should never be reduced simply to a code of morality instead of an active faith in which people are willing to “get [their] hands dirty”. If that was not enough of a shock to the system the Archbishop went on to say that the message of Christianity was so radical that it could be mistaken for a call to “violent revolution”, were it not for its emphasis on peaceful means. Many people may be disturbed to hear the most senior priest in the Church of England suggesting that many vicars talk moral claptrap! Herein is a problem between the gentle religion that many of us were brought up on and what is currently being taught in the church’s training colleges. Even as late as the second part of the 20th Century most hymns were heavily influenced by the romanticism of Victorian hymn writers who encouraged a belief that all things were bright and beautiful, and there is actually a green hill far away. In reality the horrors of war in the last century, not to mention the scandals of crimes committed against children when in the care of the church or entertainment organisations have put pay to the myth that all things are indeed bright and beautiful, the world being full of some very dark places and events, whilst the place where our Lord died was not a chocolate box picture of the idyllic English Countryside but a dry and arid mound on the edge of the city, not to mention that he was born in poverty.

    OLD CROOK HALL, WHITTLE-LE-WOODS. Now a farmhouse. 1 55 NOTES ON THE EARLY CROOKS OF CROOK, WHITTLE-LE-WOODS. By Frederic Crooks. Read 4th March, 1926. A CCORDING to Sephton's Handbook of Lancashire £*- Place-Names and other authorities,1 the name Crook is derived from the personal name Croc [Old Norse, Krokr meaning a crook or bend]. This name Croc occurs in Domesday Book, and examples will be found in Searle's Onomasticon Anglo-Saxonicitm. An account of some of the members of the Croc family is given in The Herald and Genealogist, Vol. v, and there are further references to them in the Victoria History of Hampshire, etc. Among the early bearers of the name was Robert Croc " of Scotland," c. 1200, who sealed with armes -parlantcs of three crooks2 ; another was Piers Crok [H. in Roll] who bore, Azure three crooks Or 3 ; Harl. MS. 6137, f°- 866. states " three birds' heads."4 The personal name Croc occurs at an early period in a number of Lancashire place-names, such as Crocstad now Croxteth,5 Crochurst now Crookhurst,6 Croxton now Croston. Other examples will be found in the Cockersand Chartulary [Chetham Soc. n.s. Vol. 38, etc.]. Croston in the thirteenth century was Croxton,7 which means " The tun of Croc,"8 viz. Croc's enclosure, and there is evidence 1 Letters to the writer from Professor H. C.

  • Charnock Richard Chronicle
    Charnock Richard Chronicle Christ Church and Rivington Pike – Photograph by Francis Rostron The Magazine of Christ Church Charnock Richard December 2016 FROM THE EDITOR Hi Everyone, I would like to say a massive thank you to Andrew Leigh for raising funds for Pre-school, I’ve known Andrew for many years and he really is a credit to our village for giving up his free time and sharing his talents to raise money for our village groups. Many thanks to my Dad Harold & Husband Paul for decorating the Christmas tree outside Pre- school, thanks also to Joe Noblett who always donates the Christmas tree and to Thomas Stafford for delivering and helping Harold erect the tree. As always, the tree looks wonderful and the Pre-school children love it. Congratulations must go to Barbara Lowe, who lives in the village. Barbara is dedicated to the community radio station Chorley FM, which celebrated its 10th anniversary of being on air at the end of November. We were fortunate enough to be invited to a party at Chorley Football Club and Roxanne went into the station during the 10th anniversary broadcast where she met some local and national celebrities. Once again, thank you to everyone who has sent in articles and letters. If you have an article, letter or advert that you would like me to include in the next chronicle please e-mail [email protected] by Friday 20th January. Please remember when providing dates for future events, that the Chronicle needs to be edited, printed and then distributed, so please allow for this as often people receive the Chronicle after events have taken place.
