  • Advisory Visit River Bollin, Styal Country Park, Cheshire February
    Advisory Visit River Bollin, Styal Country Park, Cheshire February 2010 1.0 Introduction This report is the output of a site visit undertaken by Tim Jacklin of the Wild Trout Trust to the River Bollin, Cheshire on 19th February 2010. Comments in this report are based on observations on the day of the site visit and discussions with Kevin Nash (Fisheries Technical Specialist) and Andy Eaves (Fisheries Technical Officer) of the Environment Agency (EA), North West Region (South Area). Normal convention is applied throughout the report with respect to bank identification, i.e. the banks are designated left hand bank (LHB) or right hand bank (RHB) whilst looking downstream. 2.0 Catchment / Fishery Overview The River Bollin is 49 km long and rises in the edge of Macclesfield Forest, flowing west to join the River Mersey (Manchester Ship Canal) near Lymm. The River Dean is the major tributary of the Bollin, and the catchment area totals 273 km2. The section of river visited flows through Styal Country Park, downstream of Quarry Bank Mill, and is owned by the National Trust. A previous Wild Trout Trust visit was carried out further downstream at the National Trust property at Dunham Massey. The Bollin falls within the remit of the Mersey Life Project which aims to carry out a phased programme of river restoration, initially focussing on the non-tidal section of the River Mersey, the River Bollin and River Goyt (http://www.environment-agency.gov.uk/homeandleisure/wildlife/102362.aspx). The construction of fish passes on Heatley and Bollington Mill weirs in the lower Bollin catchment means it is now possible for migratory species (e.g.

  • CHRONICLES of THELWALL, CO. CHESTER, with NOTICES of the SUCCESSIVE LORDS of THAT MANOR, THEIR FAMILY DESCENT, &C
    379 CHRONICLES OF THELWALL, CO. CHESTER, WITH NOTICES OF THE SUCCESSIVE LORDS OF THAT MANOR, THEIR FAMILY DESCENT, &c. &c. THELWALL is a township situate within the parochial chapelry of Daresbury, and parish of Runcorn, in the East Division of the hundred of Bucklew, and deanery of Frodsham, co. Chester. It is unquestionably a place of very great antiquity, and so meagre an account has been hitherto published a as to its early history and possessors, that an attempt more fully to elucidate the subject, and to concentrate, and thereby preserve, the scat• tered fragments which yet remain as to it, from the general wreck of time, cannot fail, it is anticipated, to prove both accept• able and interesting. The earliest mention that is to be met with of Thelwall appears in the Saxon Chronicle, from which we find that, in the year 923, King Edward the Elder, son of King Alfred, made it a garrison for his soldiers, and surrounded it with fortifications. By most writers it is stated to have been founded by this monarch, but the opinion prevails with some others that it was in existence long before, and was only restored by him. Towards the latter part of the year 923, King Edward is recorded to have visited this place himself, and for some time made it his residence, whilst other portion of his troops were engaged in repairing and manning Manchester. These warlike preparations, it may be observed, were rendered necessary in consequence of Ethelwald, the son of King Ethelbert, disputing the title of Edward.
