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. -
(190) Notes from the South Lancashire Coast
(190) NOTES FROM THE SOUTH LANCASHIRE COAST. BY F. W. HOLDER AND R. WAGSTAFFE THE following notes consist of observations made by the writers during the period between the latter part of 1924 and the summer of 1927. Some of the records have been obtained on the dune coast between Southport and Formby Point, and others on the Ribble Estuary and Martin Mere. HOODED CROW (Corvus c. comix).—A fairly regular visitor in late autumn to Martin Mere, but rarely staying through the winter. The birds are rare in the spring, two occurring on April 8th, 1925. GOLDFINCH (Carduelis c. britannica) .—Nested at Church- town in 1926. TWITE (Carduelis f. flavirostris).—Formerly plentiful in winter about the estuary sea-wall, but less frequently- observed of late years. Arrivals noticed on October 17th, 1927. CORN-BUNTING (Emberiza c. calandm).—Since 1924 this Bunting has wintered freely on Martin Mere, where previously it was best known as a partial migrant. Spring flocking is rare in this district. Between April 21st and May 6th, 1925, a flock of about 150 birds was regularly observed in the reed-beds of the unreclaimed mere, from which occasional visits were made to the waste ground adjacent to the culti vated area. A nest was observed situated rather low down in the fork of a willow growing on the bank of a broad ditch, the young being successfully reared. SNOW-BUNTING (Plectrophenax nivalis).—One at Ainsdale beach on March 8th, and two on November 1st, 1925. WHITE WAGTAIL '(Motacilla a. alba).—Usually appears in April, but has arrived twice in March—March 23rd, 1925, and March 20th, 1927. -

A Visitors Guide To
A Guide to St Elizabeth’s Roman Catholic Church Scarisbrick Mary Ormsby, Veronica & Tom Massam 1 This guide is dedicated to all parishioners and Priests, past and present, who over the generations have built and supported the Church and Catholic school in Scarisbrick. 2 Acknowledgements This guide would never have been brought to fruition without the help, support and encouragement of many people especially parishioners who loaned old photographs, alas we did not have space to include them all. The research itself has been a team effort over many years and we would like to thank the archivists and staff at Lancashire Records Office and the National Archives where most of the research was done. In addition Abbot Geoffrey Scott of Douai Abbey has provided much useful information and insight. Count Jean-Denis de Castéja, great grandson of Marie Emmanuel Count de Castéja who along with his father was responsible for the building of St Elizabeth’s, has provided many family photos and personal details. He continues to inspire and support our work. Thanks are also due to the Lancashire and Cheshire Antiquarian Society who allowed us to publish the map showing the sites of the mediaeval crosses, the Liverpool Echo and the Trustees of Douai Abbey for permission to reproduce photographs of members of the parish who became priests. As a group of scientists we needed help with our grammar, punctuation and editing, many thanks to Joe McNamara, Joan Taylor and Fr Hugh Somerville Knapmann OSB who have spent many hours helping to shape this final version of the guide. -
