Chapter XIV the Grammar School and Public Charities CHAPTER XIV . t e Grammar *cOoof and (JuBeu £harifieg. THE GRAMMAR SCHOOL. HERE were only about half a dozen grammar schools in Lancashire when Queen Elizabeth ascended the throne, and seeing the great want of such a means of education in Rochdale, Archbishop Parker in 1561 proposed to the in- habitants that they should raise a fund to build a school, which he would be prepared to endow, and by indenture dated 4th November, 1562, the vicar granted a site for the building out of the glebe lands ; this conveyance required the confirmation of the archbishop, which was however not received until loth June, 1565, probably because, the necessary funds not having been forthcoming, the school was not completed. From a letter dated 2nd May, 1565, from Francis and Charles Holt, Esquires, and Charles Radcliffe, to the arch- bishop, it appears that the school was then finished . In the meantime the archbishop by indenture dated 1st January, 1564, between himself, the masters and fellows of Corpus Christi College, Cambridge, and the vicar and church- wardens of Rochdale, had assigned a perpetual stipend to a master and under master for teaching the youth of the parish gratis in the school there to be provided and governed by them, in manner as the archbishop or his successors should appoint. The stipend was to be fifteen pounds a year for the master and two pounds for the under master, which was to be paid by the farmer of the rectory . , The master was to be appointed by the archbishop or his successors, or if the see was vacant, or in default of appointment within three months of a vacancy occurring, the master of Corpus Christi College was to * This seventeen pounds was obtained from Sir John Byron by the archbishop after a long lawsuit with the former, in consequence of his having failed to pay the stipends of the ministers .-Strype's Life of Parker .

The boys were to be taught gratis, if there were not more than one hundred and fifty, or less than fifty scholars daily . , When Sir John Byron (i Ith December, 1590) received a renewal of his lease of the rectory, one of the conditions was that the seventeen pounds just referred to was to be paid by him until the same be paid by the Blackburn rectory ; 2 this arrangement was not carried out . The school subsequently received various endowments . From an indenture of lease and re-lease bearing date 31st October and ist Novem- ber, 1682, it appears that Elizabeth Dickson, wife of Robert Dickson and widow of John Chadwick, D.D .,3 declared that her former husband had intended to settle lands for her use, but with the proviso that three pounds a year should be payable thereout after her decease to the master of the free grammar school of Rochdale, on condition that he taught free nine poor boys in the town or parish ; she had therefore purchased lands in the county of York, which she had charged with this payment .4 This rent charge was not paid after f8oo. A Mr. Linney of Rochdale gave two pounds a year to the school.5 Canon Raines believed that this was represented by the two pounds a year paid to the school by the Chadwicks of Healey. Jeremy Hargreaves, by will dated 16th January, 1696, left twenty pounds to the school, the interest whereof was to be paid for teaching writing. This benefactor was a solicitor in Roch- dale in 1719 ; this money was used to improve the buildings at Newfield Head. James Holt of Castleton Hall, Esq ., left by will bearing date 24th November, 1712, the sum of one hundred pounds for the master, on condition that he educated free so many poor boys, not exceeding six, settled inhabitants whose parents were unable to educate them, as the vicar and churchwardens should nominate. This sum and Hargreaves' bequest were in 1735 invested with the other money [see Shepherd's charity] in the purchase of Newfield Head farm in Butterworth, it being agreed that half the rent went to the school .6 In 1826 the Charity Com- ' Charity Com.

Girls as well as boys were admitted . The master considered that he was bound to teach free all boys who only wanted to learn " true piety and the Latin tongue," but no boys applied who did not require to be taught other branches of literature, and for such he considered himself authorized to make his own charge . The school, which was not pulled down until 1846 (when the present building was erected), was only sixty feet in length and twenty feet in breadth. In was built of rough stone and covered with flag slates . Adjoining was a chamber to which access was gained by a flight of stone steps from the outside . This was originally the master's house but it was latterly let to the person who cleaned the school . HEAD MASTERS.

To the vicar he bequeathed " Buden's Commentaries upon the Greek Tongue ." His library was valued at thirty shillings, his apparel at fifty-two shillings, and a stone of black wool at elevenpence .

  • SPOTLAND BRIDGE AREA Historic Development
    SPOTLAND BRIDGE AREA Historic development DRAFT FOR CONSULTATION Peter Rowlinson BA (Hons) MSc MRTPI Head of Planning & Regulation Services Mark Robinson Dip TP MRTPI Chief Planning Officer Rochdale Metropolitan Borough Council PO Box 32, Telegraph House, Baillie Street, Rochdale. OL16 1JH Written by Mathilde GUERIN - Project Assistant Kerrie Smith - Conservation Project Officer Conservation & Design Conservation & Design Email: [email protected] Email: [email protected] February 2013 Spotland Bridge area - Historic Development Draft for consultation 1. Map progression analysis View to Spotland Road looking west, mid 20th century, date unknown Origins The industrial history of Spotland Bridge started around 1610 when five fulling mills were con- structed along the River Spodden The fulling mills were driven by water wheels and used to finish the cloth to make it ready for sale. The ‘clothiers’ created this Factory System; they built these mills and the Dye Works and bought ‘pieces’ of cloth from the handloom weavers. By 1740 the area had expanded substantially and was consequently chosen as the location for a workhouse (visible on this 1831 Ordnance Survey map) which was located at the south- ern end of what is now Primrose Street. This provided homes and jobs for 100 orphans and elderly men and women. The workhouse formed one of the rallying points of the Rochdale Poor Law Union, which fought the 1837 Poor Law revisions. In March 1873, the Old Spotland Workhouse partially collapsed, possibly because of subsidence due to an old coal-pit be- neath the building. However it was used for another four years, waiting for the construction of Birch Hill Hospital (former Dearnley Workhouse).

  • Country Iioijs1 of Greater Mancheste
    COUNTRY IIOIJS1 OF GREATER MANCHESTE * P .•» I COUNTRY HOUSES OF GREATER MANCHESTER EDITORS :J.S.F. WALKER & A.S.TINDALL (;itiL\n<it MANCHESTER ARCHAEOLOGICAL UNIT 1985 osi CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT The country house is part of the diverse and rich heritage of Greater Manchester. This volume follows the development of the country house from the Middle Ages to the present day, using a combination of .archaeological excavation, documentary research and survey to present a coherent study of a building type which reflects the social and economic development of the community in a singularly direct way. By their survival they .demonstrate the entrepreneurial skills of the owner and the abilities of those artisans who built and maintained them. The form and function of the country house change over the centuries, and the fabric of individual buildings mirrors these changes and encapsulates much of the history of the time. Many of our country houses are in good hands, well maintained and with a secure future. Many others described in this volume are already lost, and even the land upon which they stood has been so disturbed as to allow no further site investigation. Their loss, in many cases, was inevitable but I hope that this publication will create an awareness that others, too valuable to be allowed to disappear, are at risk. The protection and refurbishment of old buildings is costly, but I am confident that present conservation policies, allied with improving public and private attitudes towards preservation, have created a strong body of opinion in favour of the constructive re-use of the best of those which survive.

ANDS "assarted" out of the wastes of this part of Spotland were at a very early period known as Heleya, or Heley, and gave their name to a family long resident there. Some- time in the twelfth century Dolphin de Heleya was living here ; he had three sons-Henry, Adam and Andrew. John, the son of Henry, had issue two sons, Andrew and Adam ; he died about the year 1272, seised of a messuage at Heleya.l Adam, the son of Dolphin, confirmed to his brother Henry lands in Castleton early in the next century, and his name as a witness appears frequently in charters relating to lands in Whitworth about 1238, as do also those of Adam the son of William de Heleya, William the son of Peter de Heleya, and Henry de Heleya.2 In 1273 Henry de Merlond granted land to John de Heleya, on the marriage of Amicia his daughter to Andrew the son of John de Heleya .3 There was also then living Richard the son of Anketillus de Heleya, who granted a bovate of land in Heleya to Stanlawe ; probably it was the same Anketillus the son of Andrew chaplain of Rochdale, who by deed without date confirmed to his brother Clement a bovate of land in Heleya and an " assart " which his brother Alexander had " assarted." There was also Robert, son of Anketillus, who granted to Stanlawe lands in Heleya which he had from his father, Clement de Heleya.4 Sometime before the close of the thirteenth century [c .
