  • A Walk from Church Minshull

    A Walk from Church Minshull

    A Walk to Church Minshull Aqueduct Marina photo courtesy of Bernie Stafford Aqueduct Marina, the starting point for this walk, was opened in February 2009. The marina has 147 berths, a shop and a café set in beautiful Cheshire countryside. With comprehensive facilities for moorers, visiting boaters and anyone needing to do, or have done, any work on their boat, the marina is an excellent starting point for exploring the Cheshire canal system. Starting and finishing at Church Minshull Aqueduct Marina, this walk takes in some of the prettiest local countryside as well as the picturesque village of Church Minshull and the Middlewich Branch of the Shropshire Union Canal. Some alternative routes are also included at the end to add variation to the walk which is about five or six miles, depending on the exact route taken. Built to join the Trent and Mersey Canal with the Chester Canal, the Middlewich Branch carried mainly coal, salt and goods to and from the potteries. Built quite late in the canal building era, like so many other canals, this canal wasn’t as successful as predicted. Today, however, it is a very busy canal providing an essential link between the Trent and Mersey Canal at Middlewich and the Llangollen Canal as well as being part of the Four Counties Ring and linking to the popular Cheshire Ring boating route. The Route Leaving the marina, walk to the end of the drive and turn north (right) onto the B5074 Church Minshull road and walk to the canal bridge. Cross the canal and turn down the steps on the right onto the towpath, then walk back under the bridge, with the canal on your left.

    BARTON of BARTON St George's Visitation of Lancashire Recorded in 1613 That Edmond Lathom (Father of George Lathom of Huyton A

    BARTON of BARTON St George’s Visitation of Lancashire recorded in 1613 that Edmond Lathom (father of George Lathom of Huyton and son of Thomas Latham) had been married to ‘Petronill, daughter of George Massy [recte Mascy] of Rixton’.1 Edmund Latham was probably born to Thomas Latham by c. 1441 and married Petronill Massey by 1462.2 According to a ‘Descent of the Mascys of Rixton’,3 George Mascy was a son of Hamon Mascy, third Mascy lord of Rixton. St George showed George Mascy’s wife as ‘Katherine, daughter and heire of Oliver Barton’. This was perhaps Oliver de Barton (born c. 1385), who succeeded his nephew in his estates at Barton (Farndon parish), Cheshire in 1435–6.4 Confusion seems likely, however, since the Mascy and Latham families also had interests in lands at Barton in the Lancashire parish of Eccles. On 6 March 1448 George Mascy was a deforciant (with one Oliver Barton, surely his alleged father–in–law) in the sale for 100 marks of six messuages and 316 acres in Barton, Irlam, Rivington and West Leigh, all in Lancashire.5 Oliver Barton was married to Eleanor, who acted against Edmund Latham and George Mascy in 1473 to regain her third part of 200 acres in Barton.6 On St James Day 1473 the Lancaster plea roll records the claim of ‘Ellen Barton’ to a third of five messuages, 200 acres of land, 6 acres of meadow, 40 acres of wood, 100 acres of moss, and 1000 acres of pasture, which had been her dower.

    TATTENHALL. Being a sketch of the Village of that name near CHESTER. Together with some accounts of Historic events relating to the City and County of Chester. From Notes and writings By the Late R.O. ORTON. Foreword. Having found the following notes on Tattenhall’s village and neighbourhood among my late father’s papers, and also that the reading of them considerably interested many friends, I decided, at their request, to place them in book form before the public, hoping they will meet with the same approval by the Tattenhall folk, as they have privately. I would also like to add that in the arranging and compiling of these notes I have been very cheerfully and ably helped by Mr. Alec C. Reid, a very old friend of our family. D. M. O. Bank House. Tattenhall. 29th February, 1908. Introduction to a short sketch of Tattenhall. It has been thought that it would not be uninteresting to the parishioners of Tattenhall, if a few notes were to be published of some of the changes in that time, in its appearance, and on its various inhabitants, their habits, customs, and traditions. It is not intended to write a history of the parish but merely to jot down such notes as may have been culled by the writer from various sources, or may have come down to him, as tradition, from some of the old inhabitants, long since dead. If any apology is needed for the writer venturing to publish this pamphlet, containing such jottings, it may perhaps be found in the fact that in these days of rapid progress, people are apt to forget or neglect the past history of their country, and whilst enjoying the countless privileges which they now have, fail to appreciate the greatness of those privileges, by not comparing them with the few advantages enjoyed by their forefathers.
