It is now further subdivided r [see p. .2j . As in Castleton, a very large portion of Spotland at a very early date passed into the possession of the abbots of Stanlawe . The following grants of lands in Spotland were all made to the monks of Stanlawe, and where the date is not specified they were executed in the early part of the thirteenth century. Adam de Spotland, near the end of the twelfth century, endowed the Rochdale church with lands in Spotland [see Chap . VI .], which in the charter are called " Watlondewod." Andrew, the son of Alan de Merland, gave all the lands in the "will " of Spotland which he had inherited from his brother Adam, and directed that his body should be buried at Stanlawe .2 Alexander de Brodehalgh gave all his lands of Brodehalgh which he got from William the Sergeant3 and Alexander, the son of Robert de Spotland, in exchange for an "assart" called " Parysrod," and also his lands called " Longerung ;" for this was to be paid to the chief lord annually, two iron spurs at the feast of St . Martin in the Winter, the donor only to receive the benefit of the prayers of the monks.4 Michael, the son of Robert de Spotland, conveyed a bovate of land (except one acre) for the consideration of a silver mark, also his right to certain wastes between Grymmesleysik and the forest of Rossendale, and between Naundenbrok and Heleyden . Another bovate was conceded by Hugo de Thellewall for eight silver marks and a rental of one shilling and sevenpence farthing,5 this was witnessed by William, ' For rating purposes it is Spotland and Brandwood, Spotland Nearer Side, and Spotland Further Side .

By charter witnessed by Geoffrey de Buckley, Michael Lightowlers and others, Henry, the son of Geoffrey the dean of Whalley [see Chap . VI .], for a certain sum paid to him by the abbots, granted four bovates in Spotland, which are described as constituting a fourth part of the " vil." Adam, the son of Suaniside, with the approbation of his wife, sold four acres of land in Donyngbothes [Donnisbooth] for three silver marks and an annual rent of one silver penny ; this was executed about 1238, as it was attested by William the vicar and others . About the same time Henry, the son of Martin de Spotland, and Margaret his wife conveyed all their waste land in Spotland lying between Blakeclogh and Dreuetclogh, near Naueden [Naden], which he had from Alan de Mer- land, and which was part of a bovate exchanged for lands called Broderod [Brotherod] ; this was also witnessed by William the vicar . , Diana, Matilda and Cristiana, the daughters of Michael, the son of Robert of Spotland, conveyed all the rights which they had in a bovate of land which their father had sold to the monastery, and also in certain parcels of land between Spotland and the Redbroke ; the consideration was two shillings. At the assizes at Lancaster in June, 1292, John de Lacy of Crom- welbotham sued Robert de Whitworth for fifteen acres of pasture and five acres of wood in Spotland, of which Robert unjustly disseised John de Lacy, father of the plaintiff ; the defence was that Robert de Whitworth held in common with the abbot of Stanlawe and Robert, the son of Henry ; as this could not be refuted the plaintiff was fined for making a false claim. At the same assizes John de Lacy sued Robert de Whitworth, Robert, the son of Henry, and the abbot, on the same premises, and after an adjournment was again defeated . John de Lacy, not yet satisfied, sued the abbot at the same assizes for thirty acres of pasture and half an acre of wood, the abbot pleading that these were part of the wastes of Spotland which he held in common with Robert de Whitworth, Robert, the son of Henry, and Richard, the son of Ivone ; the plaintiff was again fined .2 As will presently be seen there were several landowners in Spotland in the thirteenth century. The subsidy roll of 1332 gives the names of nine. [See page 32.] To the poll tax of 1380, thirty-nine inhabitants of the township paid their quota . [See page 34.] From the Inquis.

[See Stubley.] Whalley Abbey shared the fate of other religious houses and its last abbot, John Paslew, was executed for treason, loth March, 1536-7, when the monastic possessions in Spotland passed to the crown, and Henry VIII ., by letters patent dated 19th March, 1541, sold the same to Thomas Holt, "by our own special grace, as also for the sum of ,641 16s. 8d. paid into the hands of our chief treasurer for our use by our chosen subject, Thomas Holt of Grizslehurst, have granted to the said Thomas Holt our manor of Spotland, with all the messuages, land, &c.," with the lands in Whitworth, Tongend, Rawcliffe and Brandwood, which "said manor came to our hands by reason of the attainture of John Paslew." The manor was to be held to Thomas Holt and his heirs for ever by knight's fee, i.e., the quarter part of a knight's fee and a yearly payment of ,63 1 1s. 4d. at the feast of St . Michael the archangel. I Two years after this grant Sir John Byron and Thomas Holt were at variance as to their respective rights, the former accusing the latter of holding an illegal court leet and taking stray sheep to the injury of the King's court of Rochdale . In 156o Thomas Holt, then become Sir Thomas Holt, and a "man of great might in those parts" was charged by Sir John Byron with retaining an annual rental of twelve shillings and eightpence for some twenty years which ought to have been paid to him in right of his bailiwick and sergeancy of Rochdale and as collector of the Queen's rents therein . He further states that he was unable to distrain upon the lands "without great trouble and unlawful assemblies as they were kept in a forceable manner ;" he also denies that the manor was conveyed to Thomas Holt or that the ground called Whitworth was ever part of such manor.2 These arrears were unpaid in 6 Elizabeth [1563-4], when Francis Holt, son of Thomas Holt, was sued for them .3 Thomas Holt and Francis his son were several times plaintiff and defendant ' Copy of this is in Raines' MSS ., xiii., 360 . 2 Duchy Pleadings, Vol .

The general bearing of the evidence is against the right set up by the Holts to hold a court for Spotland . That they did for a time hold courts is certain . One such court was held at "Nattworthe" on 3oth May, 15 Elizabeth, 1573, and was styled "the court baron of Francis Holt, gentleman, for the manor of Spotland, with members ." The jury consisted of Joseph Ashworth de Greues [in Brandwood], Adam Holden, Robert Ashworth, Jamas Walsden, Andrew Shepherd, Lawrence Shawe, Edward Hallowes, James Hallowes, James Smith, John Lord, John Casson, James Brerelegh, John Clough and Richard Ainsworth . The special business transacted was to decide a dispute between John Holt and James Holt and William Ashworth. The court decided that "for the adjusting of all old malice, rancorre, hateryd and evyll wyll," all the "ways and gates" which John Holt had heretofore used from the walls "beneath the kilne " up to the fold, and from thence to the barn should no longer be used, but that he (John Holt) should "carry, fetch, and drive" to and from his dwelling-house upon and down the " hollowe " to and from "moss markets" at his pleasure, and he was also to retain a "garden-stydde" at the west end of James Holt's barn and a parcell of land called "Cattlebanke" in occupation of William Ashworth . If either of the parties failed to carry out this arrangement he was to pay the "lord of this manor," £iii . vis. viiid.I From the names of this jury and other details it appears probable that the "kilne" referred to would be one of those furnaces used by the Ashworths for their cutlery business . In 1543 it was clearly an acknowledged fact that Spotland formed part of the manor of Rochdale and in a case of dispute between Thomas Holt and one of his tenants, Sir John Byron was appealed to as the high steward .

OL16 1JH Written by Mathilde GUERIN - Project Assistant Kerrie Smith - Conservation Project Officer Conservation & Design Conservation & Design Email: [email protected] Email: [email protected] February 2013 Spotland Bridge area - Historic Development Draft for consultation 1. Map progression analysis View to Spotland Road looking west, mid 20th century, date unknown Origins The industrial history of Spotland Bridge started around 1610 when five fulling mills were con- structed along the River Spodden The fulling mills were driven by water wheels and used to finish the cloth to make it ready for sale. The ‘clothiers’ created this Factory System; they built these mills and the Dye Works and bought ‘pieces’ of cloth from the handloom weavers. By 1740 the area had expanded substantially and was consequently chosen as the location for a workhouse (visible on this 1831 Ordnance Survey map) which was located at the south- ern end of what is now Primrose Street. This provided homes and jobs for 100 orphans and elderly men and women. The workhouse formed one of the rallying points of the Rochdale Poor Law Union, which fought the 1837 Poor Law revisions. In March 1873, the Old Spotland Workhouse partially collapsed, possibly because of subsidence due to an old coal-pit be- neath the building. However it was used for another four years, waiting for the construction of Birch Hill Hospital (former Dearnley Workhouse).

Some- time in the twelfth century Dolphin de Heleya was living here ; he had three sons-Henry, Adam and Andrew. John, the son of Henry, had issue two sons, Andrew and Adam ; he died about the year 1272, seised of a messuage at Heleya.l Adam, the son of Dolphin, confirmed to his brother Henry lands in Castleton early in the next century, and his name as a witness appears frequently in charters relating to lands in Whitworth about 1238, as do also those of Adam the son of William de Heleya, William the son of Peter de Heleya, and Henry de Heleya.2 In 1273 Henry de Merlond granted land to John de Heleya, on the marriage of Amicia his daughter to Andrew the son of John de Heleya .3 There was also then living Richard the son of Anketillus de Heleya, who granted a bovate of land in Heleya to Stanlawe ; probably it was the same Anketillus the son of Andrew chaplain of Rochdale, who by deed without date confirmed to his brother Clement a bovate of land in Heleya and an " assart " which his brother Alexander had " assarted."

  • ROCHDALE in the BEGINNING of the 17111 CENTURY. by Lieut.-Col. Fishwick, F.S.A. AS the Original Parish of Rochdale Was Some 12 M
    ROCHDALE IN THE BEGINNING OF THE 17111 CENTURY. By Lieut.-Col. Fishwick, F.S.A. (Read 4th November, 1886.) S the original parish of Rochdale was some 12 miles long and A 4 miles wide, it would present too great an area to be satis­ factorily dealt with within the limits of a paper like the present. I shall therefore confine myself to the town of Rochdale and its immediate vicinity, and, as far as practicable, limit the period so as to include only the years intervening between the death of Queen Elizabeth and the opening of the " Long Parliament" thus avoiding, on the one hand, the fierce religious persecutions of the "Virgin Queen"; and, on the other, the deadly feuds between the King and the Parliament, and the Cavaliers and Roundheads. From 1603 to 1640 was a period during which many important national events took place ; but the country was so far at peace with its neighbours as to permit of much attention being given to the development of trade and com­ merce, and it was at this time that many of the towns in Lancashire first began to rise out of their obscurity; it is pro­ posed, therefore, to bring together such scattered fragments of evidence as can be discovered bearing upon the state of Roch­ dale at this period, and thus present to ourselves a view of the town as it was then a view no doubt imperfect and perhaps but ill defined but yet one the outlines of which as well as many of its details shall be drawn by those who were themselves witnesses of what they describe.

  • Lancashire (Blackburn)
    LANCASHIRE Lancashire is a large county in north-west of England, bordered by the sea to the west. The counties of Cumberland and Westmorland lie to the north, the West Riding of Yorkshire to the east, and Cheshire to the south. In the nineteenth century the county was transformed. It began as a mainly agricultural region but became an area with many large urban regions and a variety of industrial occupations. This transformation led to frequent changes in the administrative structure, both in the county-at- large and in the towns and cities. Because of the complex and changing structure, the information about weights and scales is presented here in six sections. The sections correspond geographically to the six ancient hundreds of the county, as shown in the map above. (The hundred of Lonsdale was divided naturally into two parts, North and South ‘of the Sands’, but it was administered as one unit.) It must be stressed that, although the administration of the county was based on these geographical areas, the individual hundreds did not have independent jurisdiction. 1 The hundred of BLACKBURN in Lancashire The hundred of Blackburn lies in the east of the county of Lancashire and is bordered partly by the West Riding of Yorkshire. In 1826 the county received two sets of standards for use in the Higher and Lower Divisions of the hundred. The same divisions continued after 1846, when the police force began to take over the inspection of weights and measures. An additional division, Bacup and Rawtenstall, was formed in 1861. There was a further reorganisation in 1878, after which there were four divisions: Higher, Lower, Haslingden, and Rossendale.
