  • Monumental Inscriptions
    Monumental Inscriptions St Chad’s Church was built by the Rev T.M.B. Bulkeley-Owen and was presented by him to the Parish on January 14th 1886. When it was built the tithes of Township of Haughton came to £163.16.4d. The church was built of local stone from Shelvock Quarry. There are two versions of the story of the long wooden chest-like piece of furniture at the back of the Church. One being that it was made by a local man to be used as a coffin, but was not suitable, being too long and not wide enough. It was given eventually to the Church to be used for Church purposes. Here comes the superstition: - If used for other purposes and thrown out or given away, ill luck will be bestowed on the person involved. The other version which is believed to be the true one, is that a young man William Henry Davies, who lived at the Smithy at Rednal, went to work, but unfortunately he took pneumonia and died, the doctor had the young man embalmed and dressed in his butchers uniform and paid for his body to be brought home for burial and the chest in the Church is the coffin that brought him home. He was buried in St Chad’s Church and his grave can be found in Row 18. St Chad’s Church, Haughton, Shropshire.

  • 50P Solomon in All His Glory Was Not
    Dementia Friendly JUNE 2020 Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. Matthew 6: 29. SERVING THE PARISHES OF ALL SAINTS’ HOLY TRINITY ST MARY’S 50p Per issue Baschurch Weston Lullingfields Hordley Introducing your new curate Hello, my name is Steve Alston. I am to be the new curate for the bene- fice starting in late summer. Some of you might remember me as I did a 10-week placement with you in the summer of 2018 as part of my ordi- nation training. I remember how warmly I was received by you all and am looking forward to getting to know you all better. Linda has asked me to tell you a bit about myself so here goes. I was born in London and spent most of my life there. Ten years ago, I moved to Shrewsbury with my wife Rosie and two sons Jack (now 20) and Ben (now 19). Both Rosie and I are teachers, Rosie in primary school and I in secondary. We both spent many years working in inner London compre- hensive schools. Currently Rosie works for the Shropshire Music Service and I at Concord College as a Biology teacher. I have a passion for the natural world and, in a former life, worked as a research scientist in the Natural History Museum in London. Of all God’s creatures, fish are my favourite and most of my research was on fish and their diseases. Family holidays also usually involve nature, we love climbing the Welsh peaks, sailing on the Norfolk Broads and peering into rockpools in north Devon.
