  • The Rochdale Baptists
    THE ROCHDALE BAPTISTS 1773 - 1973 A SHORT HISTORY Written in 1973 to commemorate the Bi-centenary of the West Street Baptist Church Rochdale. (RE-PUBLISHED: ON THE OCCASION OF THE 225TH ANNIVERSARY IN 1998.) By: A. Whitehead. “On 18th September 1773 friends at Rochdale asked at an Ebenezer (Bacup) Church meeting exemption from supporting the ministry there any longer in consequence of the expense attaching to the infant cause at Rochdale. Their prayer was granted by the famous Rev. John Hirst and his people without demur.” Page 1 of 47 That part of the Christian Church known as the Baptists is less than 400 years old, although in earlier times sections were in existence whose fundamental principle was that of the immediate and direct accountancy of God of each individual; that between God and the individual there was no mediator save Jesus Christ. These were the Anabaptists who rejected the priestly notions of Christian ministry and all forms of State support. They maintained their preachers by free-will offerings; whose one qualification must be a divine call to such service. Anabaptism in England was never organised and lacked leadership, for this reason it cannot be regarded as the seed-bed of the English Baptists. John Smyth was the first English Baptist. He first took orders of the Church of England, then became a Puritan Separatist and finally a Baptist Separatist, eventually fleeing to Holland and becoming the pastor of a Church of English Separatist there. In 1609 he first baptised himself and then baptised Thomas Helwys, a gentleman of Basford in Nottingham, who financed the emigration of a Gainsborough Separatist Church to Amsterdam, and others.

  • RDA Project Case Studies (R Town Hall) V1
    Heritage Rochdale: Rochdale Town Hall Project Overview Rochdale Town Hall is a building of national importance, and one of the finest Victorian town halls in the UK. Designed by William Crossland, the Town Hall was opened in 1871 as a symbol of the town’s industrial might. A century and a half later, the building is considered a masterpiece of gothic architecture. Location Rochdale Town Centre The restoration project A masterpiece it is, but one in need of some tender loving care. The building is showing its age, with a crumbling drainage system, leaking roof and darkened, dust-smeared windows and wooden panelling. A digital scan of the building carried out by the Archaeology Department at Salford University also revealed a treasure trove of forgotten rooms and obscured features. The restoration project aims to restore the building to its original glory (2021 is the 150th anniversary of its original opening), and make it an open and accessible community space. In January 2021 phase 1 of the project got underway, funded by Rochdale Borough Council. This will include all major infrastructure works, including removal of asbestos, strip out of old electrical system and the modernisation of the building’s internal drainage. Structural works will be carried out to create openings for new lifts and access points. Phase 2 of the project, beginning in summer 2021, includes replacing the roof, repairs to the external stonework, cleaning of the building and restoration of key historical rooms like the Great Hall and Grand Staircase. A new exhibition on the history of the Town Hall - featuring information panels at key points around the building - will be installed.
