SUMMARY Strictly speaking Thelwall does not qualify, and never has qualified, as a town. However, it is included in the survey of Cheshire’s Historic Towns because it was the site of a ‘burh’ ( a defended centre) in the early 10th century. Such sites were often created as, or grew into, trading centres and are therefore important examples of early urbanism in Cheshire. The burh is the focus of this assessment, therefore only brief attention is paid to the medieval and post medieval settlement. 1.1 Topography and Geology Thelwall lies in northern Cheshire at around 15m AOD, on the fringes of Warrington whose centre lies 4km to the west.

  • History of Woolston Www Stpetereschurchwoolston
    History of Woolston – www.stpetereschurchwoolston CATHOLICISM IN WOOLSTON AND RIXTON (1677-1985) Woolston, three miles east of Warrington on the high road to Manchester, received its name from the first lords of the manor. It is a derivation of "sons of the wolf", and first appears in a charter dated about 1180. In the 15th century the manor was acquired through marriage by John Hawarden of Hawarden in Flintshire. Six generations later, Elizabeth daughter of Adam Hawarden, married Alexander Standish of Standish. Their descendants remained until 1870 when the hall was sold. An account of Woolston Hall can be found in Alderman Bennett's book on the old halls around Warrington. In this book we are told that the hall stood isolated among fields, and that it was eventually demolished only in 1947. In that same year, some timber from the priest's landing was made into candlesticks and presented to St Peter's in Woolston. One of the connections with the English Martyrs was through St. Ambrose Barlow who had relatives hereabouts. One of these, Edward Booth, secured a place in the National Dictionary of Biography on account of his expertise as a maker of watches and clocks. Ambrose Edward Barlow, O.S.B., (1585 – 10 September 1641) He assumed the name Barlow and was ordained priest at Lisbon. After ordination he served the mission at Park Hall, Chorley and his published works varied from 'Meteorological Essays' to 'A Treatise of the Eucharist'. He died in 1719. Domestically, Woolston was described as "fertile" yielding good crops of potatoes, turnips, oats, wheat and clover, with its marshy corners devoted to the cultivation of osiers for the manufacture of potato-hampers.

This newsletter is available in a larger print if required. Registered Charity No. 1106123 Welcome to Rixton-with-Glazebrook’s ‘in the know’ newsletter produced by the Hamilton Davies Trust and distributed voluntarily by local residents - many thanks to them. The newsletter has been supporting communication throughout the parish since Spring 2007 and as we go into our eighth year we thought a reminder of the previous front covers would make a fitting image for the 25th edition - our thanks to Jen for the designs. 01925 813298 07511 667549 07511 01925 633139 07815 561372 07932 343438 0161 777 9726 07815 855016 0161 775 2340 0161 776 1639 01925 812443 0161 775 2935 0161 775 9360 0161 222 4444 07582 719725 01925 251221 Plenty has been happening in the parish since the last edition, 07594 954647 0161 775 2340 0161 777 6957 01925 754770 07530 895677 0161 775 5424 01925 813939 0161 775 1314 07525 456291 not least the opening of the new Community Shop - catch up with this and other news on pages 3 - 8.
