For each site the NGR, Estate Reference Number and Site Usage were recorded. From work done in Estates it was found that in some cases the NRA do not currently own all of these sites. In addition some records could not be located within Estates and ownership rights were sometimes confusing. A definitive list can only be produced when all this information is collated by Estates. However the information contained in this report is believed to cover all sites which the NRA has an interest in.

  • Notes on Some of the Places, Traditions, and Folk-Lore of the Douglas Valley
    NOTES ON SOME OF THE PLACES, TRADITIONS, AND FOLK-LORE OF THE DOUGLAS VALLEY. By William Frederick Price. Read 2nd February, 1899. " And in the four wild battles by the shore Of Duglas." Lancelot and Elaine, TENNYSON. River Douglas finds its source among the hills east of Blackrod, and flows through Wigan, where it takes a sharp curve westward. At Gathurst the country becomes closely wooded, and is very picturesque. After passing through the narrow valley between Parbold and Ashhurst Hills, the river continues its course over a vast plain, until it reaches the Ribble estuary at Hesketh Bank. Camden aptly writes: " Duglesse a riveret, " creepeth and stealeth along quietly by this place " [Wigan], neere unto which our noble Arthur, as " Ninnius writeth, put the Saxons to flight in a " memorable battaile." It has been a matter of some controversy whether our Lancashire river Douglas is the " Dulas " or " Duglas " of the Arthurian legend. The subject has been fully discussed by various county historians, Hollingworth, Dr. Whitaker, Rev. J. Whitaker, D. H. Haigh, 1 Dr. James Fergusson,2 and others, : Conquest of the Britons by the Saxons, I). H. Haigh. 2 Rude Stone Monuments, Dr. James Fergusson. 1 82 Notes on the Douglas Valley. and to the works of these writers I would refer the reader ; the evidence on both sides being very carefully dealt with by Mr. Charles Hardwick, in his interesting book, A ncient Battlefields in Lancashire. I There are undoubtedly very persistent traditions a in the Douglas valley of local conflicts at some remote period, but there is at present little reliable evidence as to the date when these battles took place, or who were the combatants.

    Hesketh with Becconshall Hert Trail.qxp_Layout Text 01/06/2017 16:46 Page 1 Continue uphill along the now tree arched lane until you reach a public seat at the junction of Marsh Road and Shore Road. At this point you are more than half way down the hill which descends from Tarleton along Station THE BECCONSALL HOTEL Road and turns west into Shore Road going towards Southport. This area is quite a famous local landmark: the bank of high ground facing you was once the south bank of the Ribble estuary, which, before the enclosure of the Hesketh with Becconsall Gardens is built on the site of the former Becconsall Hotel. The fan stone, which was above its front door marshes, was three miles wide. when it was a three storey building and had been preserved by a local resident, is now installed at the entrance to Becconsall Gardens. The initials are TGFH – Thomas George Fermor Hesketh who built it. The Sheave of Corn is from the Prior to the wide scale construction of embankments and sluices which began in this part of the Ribble estuary in Hesketh coat of arms and the Griffin from the Fermor coat of arms. 1834, the stone wall on the opposite side of the road was once lapped by sea water at high tide. The remains of a marker indicating the high point achieved by a spring tide in 1833 are still visible today. It is said that the Becconsall Thomas George was one of the main promoters of the West Lancashire Railway Line and he owned much of the land unusual rounded stone posts at the top of the wall were mooring points for boats.
