N compiling a bibliography one's chief anxiety is to include everything in it relating to the subject. Whether it be good, bad or indifferent does not concern the conscienti- ous compiler, because he is only interested in making his book as complete as is possible. Xhe subject of bibliography appeals to a very limited section of the community and the sale of this publication will be necessarily of a limited nature, not at all commensurate with the amount of labour which has been put into it, but nevertheless it is a task well worth the doing. The value of the literature of Bolton is considerably enhanced by being catalogued and arranged in such a way as to be of service to the individual who has a mind to use and consult it. How far the " unconsidered trifles" written by and of local men go to make up the history of the Borough will only be known and appreciated by those who are interested in the collection which is here catalogued. It is surprising from what sources the librarian obtains the local information so often asked for by readers ; he never loses sight of the possibility of a demand being made, and is always anxious that the applicant should not be sent empty away. The book that stand's neglected to-day is the one imperatively required to-morrow. A bibliography brings together all the fragments of knowledge and makes them accessible to all concerned besides being a ready source of reference when a local book, manuscript, map ior tract comes into the market for sale. No collection of local literature ex- cludes anything, however apparently trifling or worthless, and when this catalogue gets into the hands of collectors it is hoped that any literature they may possess of local interest which is not included herein, will eventually find its way into the library, where it is sure of a permanent home, besides being always available for use. For a book to be locked up in a library of the private collector is for it to be prac- tically useless, at any rate it is often there for one person's use only, whereas in the Public Library it is available to the whole community. Hitherto, the usual method of arranging Bibliographies has been by chronological order, so that the reader may see the progress of an author's work from the commencement to the end of his career. This practice of past times may have had its advantages, but it has little application now when information is more easily procurable than formerly. Therefore, an alphabetical arrangement under author's names has been adopted for Part I., alphabetical by subject for Part II., and alphabetical by printer's names for Part III., as being most likely to meet with general approval by research workers. It has been found necessary to alter the title of this work owing to its scope having been considerably extended. It was meant originally as a catalogue of the material contained in the Local Collection in the Reference Library, but as the work proceeded and information slowly trickled into the compiler's hands, it was decided to include everything of local interest, whether in the Library or not, thus making it " Bibliographia Boltoniensis " and not " Biblio- theca Boltoniana." My thanks are gratefully recorded to Mr. F. W. C. Pepper for willing help during the compilation and publication of this work. — vi — CONTENTS. PRINCIPAL BOOKS CONSULTED. BARTON, B.

HE Bibliography of Bolton is somewhat extensive, and consifts principally of pamphlets, many of them on religious and semi- religious subjects. Famous as Bolton is in the world of manu- facture, and prominent as it is historically for its connection with one or two national episodes, it is not unknown in the world of literature. There are fads which deal hi^orically with Bolton in a literary sense which cannot be passed over without mention. For instance it has a Charter, which seems to have escaped notice until it was brought to light and transcribed by Miss Mary Bateson in the pages of the English Historical T^evievo, Vol. XVII, 1902, pp. 291, e/ seq., dated 14th January, 1253, and granted by William de Ferrers, Earl of Derby. Robert H alley in his " Lancashire, its Puritanism and Nonconformity," says that in the time of Henry VIII, " (1509-47) Bolton was then, in its manufacturing prosperity, rather a rival " than a dependency of Manchester. For some time it seemed doubtful which " of the two would become the great mart of the manufactures of the district." The town is also mentioned by John Leland in his "Itinerary" published in 1558, in which he says " ^olton apon ^oore stondith most by Cottons " and cowrse yame. Divers Villages in the Mores abowt Bolton do make " Cottons. Nother the Site nor Ground aboute ^olton is so good as it is aboute " tByi- They burne at ^olton sum Canale, but more Se Cole of the wich the " Pittes be not far of. They burne Turfe also." The cottons mentioned here were a kind of coarse woollen frieze, and must not be confused with the cotton of to-day, in the manufacture of which the climate of Bolton plays so large a part, being one of the chief factors in its success as a cotton manufacturing — IX- ; — — centre, its damp atmosphere bemg equal to a gain of 7 per cent, in the cost of the production of its staple induftry. In 1638, Bolton was the principal market in the kingdom for the sale of fustians, most of which were manufactured in the di^idts around. Richard Blome in his "Britannia" written in 1673, says that " Boulton, seated on the river Irwell, a fair and well-built Town, with broad " streets ; hath a market on Mondays, which is very good for cloth and " provisions ; and is a place of great trade for Fustians." In the great political struggles of the country Bolton has from very early times taken an adlive part. In 1 5 1 3 Sir Edward Stanley, first Baron Monteagle, raised bowmen at Bolton to fight at Flodden Field. A ballad of the time ran : " With fellows fresh and fierce in fight. Which Horton fields did turne in fores With lusty lads liver and light. From Blaikborn and Bolton i'th Mores." At the time of the Civil Wars Bolton was termed the " Geneva of Lanca- shire, and was considered the school and centre of Puritanism. In 1642 it was fortified by a thick mud wall and a wide ditch. It was twice unsuccessfully stormed by the forces of Charles 1., and again by Prince Rupert and the Earl of Derby in 1 644. This time the town—by the aid of treachery it is said was taken, and a bloody massacre followed. In 1 65 1 James, seventh Earl of Derby, was beheaded for treason in Churchgate, near the market cross. Contemporary accounts of these events are preserved in the Reference Library in the form of tracts, which are both rare and curious. The titles of three of the more important will give some idea of their nature : (i) How the Earle of Darbies forces made an onset on the Towne of Boulton and was driven off with the losse of a hundred men, and but eight on the Towne side.

In the history of Manchester, and indeed of South Lancashire as a whole, no other event or enterprise can compare with it in its far-reaching effects. The story, too, in many respects contains all the elements of a romance. It is the relation of a desperate and almost hopeless fight against opposi- tion of the most powerful and uncompromising character, and it is meet that the names and qualities of the men engaged in the strife, and the nature of the difficulties which they encountered and overcame, should find a permanent record. To rescue both individuals and incidents from oblivion, and to give a connected narrative of the course of events from the conception to the completion of the canal, is the object of the present work.

  • The Old Pewter at the Fleece Inn at Bretforton
    THE OLD PEWTER AT THE FLEECE INN AT BRETFORTON After the first two photos (from the Pewter Society notice of a Summer meeting in June 2017) and the Wikipedia copied detail there follows the information Jan Gadd had in his papers without an article being written – or the information being assembled in some order for publication - (as far as known). Thus, this article is here to inform collectors of an unusual display of old pewter in at a charming location and to bring to light research by Jan Gadd in 1999. FROM WIKIPEDIA The Fleece Inn is a public house in Bretforton, in the Vale of Evesham, Worcestershire, England: the half-timbered building, over six hundred years old, has been a pub since 1848, and is now owned by the National Trust. The inn was extensively damaged by fire on 27 February 2004, and after repairs and rebuilding were completed the Fleece officially reopened on 18 June 2005. The pub holds an annual asparagus festival asparagus and auction while there are three Morris sides based at the pub: Pebworth, Belle d'Vain and Asum Gras. There is a regular folk night plus concerts and weddings in the medieval barn. Owned by the National Trust, The Fleece Inn was originally built in the early 15th century as a longhouse (an early type of farmhouse accommodating both livestock and humans) by a prosperous yeoman farmer called Byrd. It later became a pub, which was rebuilt in the 17th century and remained in the Byrd family until 1977, when Lola Taplin bequeathed it to the National Trust.

  • England Summer 2018
    England Summer 2018 Bob and Molly As is usual on our extended visits to England, we spend our time in our Nephew’s flat in Ilkley and essentially spend our days in much the same way as we do when we are in Mason. In addition, we take advantage of the many excellent restaurants and enjoy the change of pace that a small town provides. Molly reverts to her “England-style”, and shops almost every day; walking down into the town, getting provisions sufficient for a day or two and then takes advantage of the hourly bus service to get back up the steep hill to the apartment. Bob usually goes for a walk or, weather per- mitting, a bike ride—both very enjoyable forms of exer- cise in some beautiful countryside. We also spend a lot of time with family and friends. Consequently, our routine doesn’t demand much cover- age in our journal and the daily “diary” is used merely as a reminder of the events—many of which are repeated day after day. We do, however, spend some time that we feel merits a little more coverage and it is that which com- prises the bulk of our journal. This summer was no ex- ception and, in fact, included several “adventures” that we cover here and that might provide readers with some- thing of interest. In fact, this six weeks seemed to fly by and we felt that we had packed a lot into our stay. So, while the daily diary is included as an Appendix for our records, the bulk of the journal deals with those more “out of the ordinary” events.

THOMAS’S CHURCH, BEDFORD CENTENARY OCTOBER 12th, 1940 A SHORT HISTORY OF THE CHURCH AND PARISH “Lord, I have loved the habitation of Thy house : and the place where Thine honour dwelleth,” – Psalm xxvi, 8 COMPILED BY The Rev. G. WILLETT, M.A. VICAR OF BEDFORD THE LORD BISHOP OF MANCHESTER THE RIGHT REV, GUY WARMAN, D.D. Foreword N November, 1922, the late Vicar wrote in the Parish Sheet of his intention, if possible, of writing a short history of Bedford Parish. Mr. Lawton was then in his 67th year, and this fact, I added to the charge of a large parish, prevented him from carrying out his wishes. The duty has fallen on his successor, the present Vicar, who has done his best at what has been a difficult but very happy task. The old Parish Sheets, written by the late Vicar, and dating back to 1894, have been a mine of information, and in addition, I have been fortunate in having easy access to the old Deeds of the Parish, the old Registers, old Minute Books, and other similar sources. I should like to express my thanks to the following: - To the Lord Bishop of Manchester for his encouraging message in this book. To Mr. Arthur Mee for permission to include his description of Bedford Church from his book entitled “Lancashire,” and to the Publishers, Messrs.

  • OUR NEWEST CLERGY TEAM MEMBER—WELCOME! "He Told Them: the Harvest Is Plentiful, but the Workers Are Few
    October 2020 THE MAGAZINE OF THE HORWICH & RIVINGTON TEAM CHURCHES OUR NEWEST CLERGY TEAM MEMBER—WELCOME! "He told them: The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few. Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field.” Luke 10:2 “My journey to ordination has been an unusual one and unique in many different ways. This week started with a ‘virtual’ retreat led by Reverend Canon Phil Stone, director of the Scargill Movement and leader at Scargill House in North Yorkshire. As eager ordinands we 'zoomed' in and out of sessions sharing our lives and the experiences that had led us to this stage of our journey with God and taking time to prepare for the ministry ahead. We were encouraged to live generously recognising God’s amazing abundance and His rich and lavish love for us. John 7:38, NIV: "Whoever believes in me, as Scripture has said, ‘rivers of living water will flow from within them.'" A call to consider the pure and life-giving nature of God. We were likewise heartened by God’s view of us as His beloved – adored, cherished and blessed. At a time when so many elements of our lives are altered and unsettled we may ask ourselves, ‘How can we sing the Lord’s song in a strange land?’ Be inspired that we can continue to sing of His abundance and His blessing as constant and firm when the world around us feels unpredictable and fragile. On Wednesday 23rd September, I was ordained by the Rt Rev’d Mark Ashcroft, the Bishop of Bolton, at Bolton Parish Church.
