  • 'After Housing Costs' Child Poverty Rate from Highest to Lowest
    Notes: This spreadsheet ranks wards in Greater Manchester by their 'after housing costs' child poverty rate from highest to lowest. This is done using data published by End Child Poverty in 2019. The data also ranks areas based on the proportion of the population in a ward classified as black and minority ethnic (BAME) in census data. The higher the proportion of people who are BAME in a ward the higher the rank. This data shows that areas with the highest BAME populations in Greater Manchester are often the areas with the highest rates of child poverty.

  • The Development of Bowdon Since 1766
    THE DEVELOPMENT OF BOWDON SINCE 1766 A Paper Presented to the Bowdon History Society by Ronald Trenbath St. Mary’s Church, Bowdon 3 THE DEVELOPMENT OF BOWDON SINCE 1766 By Ronald Trenbath DA, FRSA, ARIBA THE URBAN DEVELOPMENT OF BOWDON FROM 1700 The parish of Bowdon, on the north side of the lower reaches of the Bollin Valley, originally stretched from Hale Barns in the east to Warburton in the west, and included the Manor of Dunham Massey, the market town of Altrincham and the village of Bowdon, and no study can be made of one of these three communities without reference to the other two. In the nineteenth century the village of Bowdon, which has a hill in the centre of the parish, was developed for expensive and prestigious residential use by entrepreneurs from the industrial belt north of the Mersey. Why, one might ask, is Bowdon so special that it is worthy of any consideration? Large conurbations have always had salubrious areas which evolved over many years into affluent suburbs. The answer to that question is that Bowdon was not a suburb but a self-governing entity which, when studied in the context of the Social Revolution of the time, reflects the changes which occurred both nationally and locally! Buildings mirror the character and culture of those who live in them! The elegance of classical Greece is embodied in the Temple of Nike Apteros in Athens, the might and brutality of Ancient Rome is seen in the Coliseum, the spiritual magnitude of medieval England is celebrated in Salisbury Cathedral and for the technical genius and criminal administrative incompetence of twentieth-century England one need look no further than the Millennium Dome, and in Bowdon one can read the story of those who have lived there.

  • Guide to Bowdon Parish Church and Theguide Surrounding to Area Bowdon Parish Church and the Surrounding Area
    Guide to Bowdon Parish Church and theGuide Surrounding to Area Bowdon Parish Church and the Surrounding Area FREE Welcome to St Mary the Virgin, the Parish Church at Bowdon 1 AN ANCIENT CHURCH and PARISH The long ridge of Bowdon Hill is crossed by the Roman road of Watling Street (now the A56), linking Cheshire and Lancashire. There has been a landmark church on this raised site, in the centre of Bowdon, since Saxon times. A small community was established here, possibly by Archbishop Theodore, in the 7th century. Theodore set up the dioceses in the region and divided them into parishes, so Bowdon may have been one of the first. St Chad, Bishop of Mercia, in which Bowdon parish was situated in 669AD, is known to have worked nearby. The 1086 Domesday Book tells us that a mill, church and parish priest were at Bogedone (bow-shaped hill) at the time, which was held by the Norman officer, the first Hamon de Massey. There is evidence for the rebuilding of the church in stone around 1100 in Norman style and around 1320 during the reign of Edward II, with the addition of a tower, new nave with octagonal pillars and pointed arches and a south side aisle (with the old church becoming in part the north aisle). In 1510 at the time of Henry VIII, it was partially rebuilt, but not completed. 2 In 1541, at the Dissolution of the Monasteries, the parish was transferred to the Diocese of Chester from the Priory of Birkenhead, which had been founded by local lord Hamon de Massey, 3rd Baron of Dunham.
