  • History of St Marys

    History of St Marys

    The Dawn of Catholicism in North Staffordshire A Cistercian abbey of St Mary by the Trent at Hulton was founded by Henry de Audley in 1223 & soon after they established a grange (farm) at Rushton on the hillside below Cobridge. In 1538 during the Reformation Hulton Abbey was dissolved with its properties taken by the Crown & subsequently sold, but it’s grange at Rushton was the key to the survival & eventual revival of Catholicism in Stoke. Over the next few centuries the grange passed through many hands including the Biddulph & Bagnall families who were both Catholics. In 1688 the grange was ransacked by a Protestant mob as it had become well known as a Catholic centre By the early 18th century Rushton Grange, Cobridge had become a Mass centre but only became a parish in 1760 when Fr Thomas Flynn came to the district as a resident priest, he probably lived in Burslem although said Mass in the Chapel at Rushton Grange that was part of an old Cistercian farm. In 1781 a new chapel was opened on the hill above the Grange, this was St Peter’s Church, Cobridge. Hard as it is for us to comprehend it was not until 1791 that saying Mass became legal & Catholic worship was once more recognised by the laws of England. Then it was not until 1829 following an Act Of Parliament that Catholics received back their civil rights & with it their right to vote. After a period of persecution of almost 300 years was an amazing journey through which all the Parishes in the North of Stoke can trace their roots, roots that go all the way back to St Mary by the Trent way back in 1223.

    Jenks' Guide to the Staffordshire

    JENKS’ GUIDE TO THE STAFFORDSHIRE & WORCESTERSHIRE CANAL (1907) with particular reference to the Stafford Branch Canal / River Sow Navigation Researched and written by David Jones One of the first canal tourist guide books was probably The Staffordshire & Worcestershire Canal written by Alfred E.Jenks and published by John Steen & Co Ltd at the Old Grammar School Printing Works (St John’s Street, Wolverhampton) in 1907. Alfred Jenks lived at Neville Lodge, Newbridge Crescent, Wolverhampton. He was a “Breeder of High-class Dalmations or Coach Dogs” and sold “Well Spotted Dogs at Two Guineas”. The 64 page Guide describes the waterway and various features along the route from Great Haywood to Stourport, such as bridges and locks, and includes maps, tables of distances and numerous photographs. The Guide is arranged in two sections: Tettenhall (Newbridge) to Great Haywood, and Tettenhall to Stourport. Useful information was offered to the traveller, such as the location of convenient fields for camping and the various inns “where refreshments and accommodation can be obtained the year round” as at the Anchor Inn (Coven). Travellers are told that “the name-plates affixed to the bridges will be found a great help in locating one’s whereabouts, and that “strangers to the route and the local traffic will find it safer not to travel by night.” We are reminded that “Private boats, kept permanently on the Canal, take out an annual license; but boats touring through take out a ‘pass’ at the first toll house.” The Guide was very informative, and gave a very positive up-beat view of boating, the pleasant rural scenery, picturesque buildings, old churches, and numerous craft were mentioned – rowing boats, steam launches, electric launches, motor boats and pleasure craft of all sorts – but there was no mention of working boats, no mention of the unmentionable raison d’être of the canal – this was Edwardian England through rose-coloured spectacles in those carefree days before the First World War.
