Information About Sweeping, Waste Bins and Street Sign Cleaning
Information about sweeping, waste bins and street sign cleaning With the exception of high profile areas, for example, the Town Centre, it is not always possible to be specific about days and dates. However if at any time, you see an area that needs sweeping, or a bin that is overflowing, please report it via [email protected] or (01257) 515151. If it is scheduled to be sorted shortly, we won’t do it twice. If it isn’t scheduled to be done soon, the response team will deal with it. Sweeping There are four types of sweeping arrangements: Large mechanical sweeper This sweeper works on the A roads around the litter picking ‘A’ roads Borough. We aim to sweep all A roads every three weeks. Within the 3 week cycle, we have built in capacity to respond to service requests, via the Contact Centre.

A NORTH MEOLS DOCUMENT of 1716. R I ^HE Document Here
A NORTH MEOLS DOCUMENT OF 1716. By F. H. Cheetham, F.S.A. r I ^HE document here printed was till lately in the old A Town's chest, at the parish church of St. Cuthbert, North Meols (Churchtown, Southport), but with other township papers was in February, 1931, transferred to the custody of the Southport Corporation, and is now at the Southport Town Hall. It is written on the first page of a sheet of paper folded into two leaves of 12 by 8 inches. The outer edge of the first leaf is slightly broken, and some of the words are therefore imperfect, but they are easily read and are here restored in italics. The document, as will be seen, is addressed to the Inhabitants of the Parish of North Meols, and conveys to them the decision of five Deputy Lieutenants of the County of Lancaster in the matter of a dispute, or differ ence, between the Townships of North Meols and Birk- dale (which together constituted the Parish cf North Meols) touching their respective shares in the payment of the Militia Tax levied on the parish by the County. For County purposes the parish was the unit of local government, but in respect to its own affairs each town ship was governed by its Vestry and nominated its own officers. The two North Meols Townships differed con siderably in extent and population, the area of North Meols being 8,467 acres, and that of Birkdale 2,214 acres. 1 The population in 1716 can only be conjectured, 1 V.C.H. -

XLVH. VOL. C-, AND L. OF S. H. PARBOLD. CHAPCL, DOUGLAS SOME HISTORICAL NOTES ON THE CHAPEL OF OUR BLESSED LADY, PARBOLD, LANCASHIRE. By William Frederick Price. Read 5th December, 1895. HIS ancient and interesting ecclesiastical T edifice, better known as " Douglas Chapel," was demolished in 1878. It was situated at the foot of Parbokl Hill, in the township of Parbokl, and lay hidden in a picturesque and sequestered valley. Parbokl Hill, with its extensive stone quarries, is a familiar object to travellers on the Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway between Southport and \Vigan. It is the most prominent feature of a range consisting of Parbokl, Hunters, and Harrock Hills ; and on the opposite side of the valley is another range, comprising Ashurst, Upholland, and Billinge. Parbokl and Ashurst Hills stand like sentinels at the neck of a beautiful and well- timbered valley, which is watered by the River Douglas, 1 a sluggish stream, with high banks, veiled with alder, willows, and poplar. This river 1 A Celtic river-name. The word "dhu," black, appears in five rivers in Wales, three in Scotland, and one in Dorset, which are called Dulas. There are also two in Scotland and one in Lancashire called the Douglas ; and we have the Dcjulas in Radnor, the Dowles in Shropshire, and the Higgles in Lancashire. Rev. I. Taylor, Words ami Places, p. 143. 208 Historical Notes on Douglas Chapel. takes its source among the hills of Rivington, flows through the town of Wigan, 2 past Gathurst, Appley Bridge, Parbold, Ruftbrd, and Tarleton, and joins the Kibble estuary at Hesketh Bank. -
A Short History of the Township of Rivington in the County of Lancaster
^|S4ii^^^Si^:liif:;ivills^'; THE LIBRARY OF THE UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA LOS ANGELES A SHORT HISTORY OF THE TOWNSHIP OF A SHORT HISTORY OF THE TOWNSHIP OF IN THE COUNTY OF LANCASTER WITH SOME ACCOUNT OF THE CI)urcl) anil (grammar ^cl)ool BY WM. FERGUSSON IRVINE PRINTED AT THE BALLANTYNE PRESS, EDINBURGH 1904 57848^ ENGLISH LOCAL •r. •-a uj ^ PA PREFACE intention of this book is not to present the reader THEwith a dry archaeological account of the history of the township. The aim of the writer has been rather to put together a consecutive account of the descent of the Manor and the history of the Church, the old Nonconformist Chapel, and the Grammar School in a popular way, choosing in the main such incidents in the story of Rivington as illus- trate the manners and customs of our forefathers. To some people an account of this kind makes no appeal, but the writer ventures to hope that there are many who, while not attracted by the minutiae of antiquarian research, are sufficiently interested in a general way in the history of their neighbourhood to follow the story with pleasure. The idea of this book originated with Mr. W. H. Lever. When talking over the history of the countryside, Mr. Lever suggested that the scattered facts known about Rivington should be collected into a consecutive story, and this book is the outcome. It is hardly necessary to add how much the writer owes to Mr. Lever for the great interest he has taken in the work as it progressed, and for his constant encouragement and help, especially in giving full access to the Rivington charters and documents, many of which are dated as early as the thirteenth century. -
