  • The Growth of a Township
    THE GROWTH OF A TOWNSHIP A Further Account of the Parish of Guilden Sutton by H Arthur MSc PhD A tribute to the older residents of Guilden Sutton who by their generous provision of information have in large measure made this account possible September 1981 FOREWORD CONTENTS PAGE Foreword 1 Township originally referred to the sharing of a small 1 settlement, by two or more farmers, then to a larger community living close together The beginning 2 and then finally to the place itself in which they lived. Where a parish consisted of a single township, the two words came to mean the Early Development (1200 - 1894) 4 same thing. It seemed appropriate to use township in the title of this account, since the early sections are a brief survey of Guilden Later Development (From 1894) 7 Sutton's development from a tiny manor to a civil parish. It is also called a further account as it should be regarded as complementary to The Changing Face of the Parish the eminently readable account written by the Rev H A Clarke in 1964 entitled "In Pastures Green". 1 Village Centre 9 My sources of information have been (i) histories, maps and preserved documents 2 Wicker Lane 19 (ii) buildings standing in the parish (iii) the memories of older residents 3 Guilden Sutton lane 22 Regarding the first of these, I am grateful to the staffs of the City 4 Belle Vue Lane 26 Archives and the Cheshire Records Office for helping me to trace the rather sparse and scattered evidence that is available.

  • Littleton Parish Cycling Plan
    LITTLETON PARISH CYCLING PLAN Introduction The purpose of the plan is to reduce the dependence on car travel within the area of the parish in order to increase Active Travel. The plan considers short trips to places of education, shops, workplaces, recreation, worship etc. It also considers longer routes from the community to the city centre, railway station etc. There is a strong dependence on the suitability of cycling infrastructure in adjacent parishes to achieve a coordinated network. Hence it was decided that the parishes of Waverton, Christleton, Littleton, Huntington, and Great Boughton would each have a Cycling Plan developed simultaneously. This report for Littleton should therefore be read in conjunction with the other parish reports. At the end of the combined report there is a conclusion with recommendations for the whole area with a map showing the locations of suggested improvements to the area. Existing Cycle Routes The village is located on the A51 with dual-use paths on both sides of the road running from the Vicar’s Cross traffic lights with A41 and eastwards to Stamford Lane on the South side and to Wicker Lane and beyond to Kelsall on the North side. There are no specified cycling infrastructure (separated paths) elsewhere in the Parish. Hare Lane and Littleton Lane together form a connection between Hoole, Piper’s Ash, Guilden Sutton and elsewhere with the school and Law College in Christleton. Pearl Lane also forms an important route for pedestrians and cyclists connecting Littleton and Christleton with Great Boughton and the rest of Chester. It is widely used by school children.
