  • Denbighshire Record Office
    GB 0209 DD/BE Denbighshire Record Office This catalogue was digitised by The National Archives as part of the National Register of Archives digitisation project NRA 30556 The National Archives CLWYD RECORD OFFICE L ARO S.P.BEVON MSS. Schedule of documents deposited on indefinite loan by the County Librarian per Wrexham Area Library. 20 July 1976 (Ref: DD/BE) Clwyd Record Office 46, Clwyd Street, Ruthin, Clwyd A.N. 321 July 1987 S.P.BEVON MSS. This collection consists of material received from a Wrexham solicitor, relating to his personal and business affairs, and to some of his clients. The bulk of S.P.Bevon's personal papers consist of correspondence about properties he owned in Wrexham, and reports and prospectuses of various mining and plantation concerns abroad, in which he owned shares. There is no autobiographical material. The rest of the collection has been sorted into sequence by parish, with separate sections for court cases and election papers, as there is no large quantity of material relating to an individual client. Perhaps the most interesting item is a photograph showing the range of products made by Ewloe Potteries, Buckley, in the 1920s. Other interesting subjects include Ffos-y-go Colliery, Gwersyllt, 1901-4; the appointment of a receiver for the New Llangollen Slate and Slab Company. 1898-1903; prospectus of Broughton Hall Iron Company, c.1890; complaints about conditions at Croesnewydd Military Hospital, Wrexham, 1917; and a dispute over building costs of a new church at Brynteg, 1894-5. There are also some files of papers relating to S.P.Bevon's clients, 1920-40, in the Wrexham Library collection.

VIRTUE A!CD CO., LIMITRD. CITV EOAD ID 3 \\-\84- PREFACE. N revising these pages for separate publication I have been made very conscious, both of the excellence and charm of their subject on the one hand, and, on the other hand, of the very inadequate and unworthy manner in which the subject is here treated. It would be a most pleasant task to me, if sufficient health and opportunity were granted to me, to endeavour to do more justice to the scenery and history of this river; but many difficulties the and I impeded even writing of these short chapters ; have been compelled in some degree to modify their original plan and arrangement, especially as regards the Estuary. Under these circumstances my friend Mr. Rimmer had the goodness to write the Tenth and Eleventh Chapters, having reference to the architectural topics, with which he is professionally conversant. J. S. II. COLWYN BAY, July \-jth, 1875. 1051243 PREFACE.

Garden incorporates a well preserved early eighteenth-century dovecote. Type of Site Park with formal elements; formal, part terraced, part walled garden. Main Phases of Construction Early eighteenth century SITE DESCRIPTION Erbistock Hall is a Georgian brick mansion situated on elevated ground to the west of the river Dee, just south of Rose Hill. It is a two-storey house with a central pediment on the south side, facing the garden. The main entrance is on the west side, where two wings project forwards between a small, partly grassed court closed by a brick wall on the west side. The house was built in 1720, although the south wing may be later. It belonged to the Wynn family of Wynnstay. It was reduced from three to two storeys by the present owner's father. To the north of the house is an L-shaped timber-framed barn, nogged with brick, probably contemporary with the house. Further utilitarian farm buildings lie to the north-east. There is a very fine, well preserved dovecote next to the south-east corner of the house. It is a tall circular brick building with a conical slate roof topped by a small lantern, on top of which is a weather vane with the date 1737 cut in its 'tail'.

  • On Dee and St Hilary's, Erbistock MAELOR MISSION AREA
    Application pack for St Mary’s, Overton- on Dee and St Hilary’s, Erbistock MAELOR MISSION AREA The Diocese of St Asaph In the Diocese of St Asaph or Teulu Asaph, we’re • Growing and encouraging the whole people of God • Enlivening and enriching worship • Engaging the world We’re a family of more than 7,000 regular worshippers, with 80 full time clergy, over 500 lay leaders, 229 churches and 51 church schools. We trace our history to the days of our namesake, St Asaph and his mentor, St Kentigern who it’s believed built a monastery in St Asaph in AD 560. Many of the churches across the Diocese were founded by the earliest saints in Wales who witnessed to Christian faith in Wales and have flourished through centuries of war, upheaval, reformation and reorganisation. Today, the Diocese of St Asaph carries forward that same Mission to share God’s love to all in 21th Century north east and mid Wales. We’re honoured to be a Christian presence in every community, to walk with people on the journey of life and to offer prayers to mark together the milestones of life. Unlocking our Potential is the focus of our response to share God’s love with people across north east and mid Wales. Unlocking our Potential is about bringing change, while remaining faithful to the life-giving message of Jesus. It’s about challenging, inspiring and equipping the whole people of God to grow in their faith. Geographically, the Diocese follows the English/Welsh border in the east, whilst the western edge is delineated by the Conwy Valley.

CITY offices: I, LOMBARD COURT. «^ 1335236 TO THE SACRED MEMORIES OF THE PAST PREFACE Having inherited some notes on the Parish of Worthenbury, which I only recently read, I determined, with these and other means within my reach, to write all that I could gather of the history of my parish, knowing, however, perfectly well, how imperfect my work must be, yet bearing in mind Machiavelli's saying that " it was better to do things badly than not to do them at all." T. H. G. P. C(?c Slonj of a (Duiet Countrj) Parisl?, BEING GLEANINGS OF The History of Worthenbury, Flintshire. Although Worthenbury does not appear to have been the scene of any great historical events, yet I hope to put togfether some gatherings which may have interest for those who know it and love it. It is situated on the river Dee, is bounded on the south by Shropshire and on the north by Cheshire, and forms a part of the Hundred of Maelor, or Maelor Saesneo', to distinguish it from Maelor Cymraig in Denbighshire ; it is in the county of Flint, though separated from the main part of it by the portion of the county of Denbigh in the neigh- bourhood of Wrexham, through which one must pass for live or six miles before again touching Flint- shire.
