  • The Sankey Navigation
    SANKEY NAVIGATION THE FIRST LANCASHIRE CANAL BY T. C. BARKER, M.A. Read 16 December 1948 > HEN Arthur Young visited the north of England in w 1771 he went " to Manchester with design not only to view the manufactures of that town but to make it my headquarters from thence to go the tour of his Grace the Duke of Bridgewater's navigation about which such wonders are abroad." 11 ' In the account of his tour in the north Young devoted forty- six pages, complete with maps and diagrams, to a description of these wonders: the twelve sets of " canal doors ", the underground tunnel deep into the hillside at Worsley and the aqueduct over the Irwell at Barton were all greeted with excited enthusiasm. Young's description, Smiles's appealing character sketch of James Brindley 12 ', and the reputation which the Bridge- water Canal gained by its magnificence, have together caused some historians, following Young's example, (3) to concentrate their attention upon the Worsley-to-Manchester Canal at the expense of the Sankey Navigation. Professor Mantoux, for instance, wrote that the Worsley Navigation was "the first real canal in England " (4), a belief which has received further wide publicity from Dr. Trevelyan ^ Arthur Young, A Six Months' Tour Through the North of England (London, 2nd edn., 1821), Vol. Ill, p. 187. 121 S. Smiles, Lives of the Engineers (London 1861), Vol. I, pp. 307-476. 13 'A few days before his visit to Manchester, Young had gone from Warrington to Liverpool on which journey he must have crossed the Sankey Navigation.

  • Recollections and History of Penketh
    RECOLLECTIONS AND HISTORY OF PENKETH by Benjamin Hobson “As the sun of my life lingers in its setting I have thought that it might be of interest, especially to those who value the past, to put on record something of the history of the village in which the greater part of my life has been spent. A good deal of the following is from my own recollections, but I have been indebted to several friends for material which has enabled me to go back far beyond my own remembrance. The old order ever changeth, giving place to new, but the present is the offspring of the past. There will always be those who will love to wander amongst bygone scenes.” Benjamin Hobson. c. 1907 These reminiscences appear to have been compiled over several years before being collected together by the author, known as The Penketh Historian, in the following document published in 1907. They offer a fascinating insight to village life in a long-gone age. The author, Benjamin Hobson, appears to have been a very able, well-educated and altruistic man – a pillar of village society. He was the local Registrar of Births Marriages and Deaths and a member of the Wesleyan Methodist Church with whom he was deeply involved in several worthy causes notably the Penny Bank and the Temperance Movement. He came, probably from Leeds, in 1848, to work as an improver*, for Messrs R Garnett & Sons, Cabinet Makers of Penketh at the age of 19. He was a contributor to the Warrington Guardian, and probably other newspapers, and although the narrative herein is, at times, difficult to read he will occasionally delight the reader with a wonderful turn of phrase which makes the effort more than worthwhile.

    MANCHESTER AT WORK A Survey II HeTe is a field open to ability, and sure faNour comu to the deseTtling; and industry is disringuished with due rewards." Edited b, PROFESSOR HENRY CLAy and K. RUSSELL BRADY Published b, THE· MANCHESTER CIVIC WEEK COMMlITEE Agencs : Messrs. SHERRATT 1St. HUGHES Publishers and BookselleT. CROSS STREET. MANCHESTER Postage: 3id. 2 0 07'S Printed in Great Britain at the Cloister Press Ltd., Heaten Mersey, Manchester. X~t~lb3. 3Srft~ P5 PREFACE. A FTER that memorable trooping of the city's ..l1Jndustrial colours-Manchester Civic Week, the committee found that it had made money: there were profits' from the entertainments, the sale of· handbooks and so forth. A substantial sum, over £3,600, was distributed amongst Manchester Institutions relying for their support upon voluntary coritributions, but, when the final accoUllts were available, there was found still to be a ~inall balance and ihis has lain at interest until a fitting use might be found for it. It has been apparent for some time that Manchester is very busy stocktaking: measur­ ing its resources and its skill against those of its com­ petitors. We felt, therefore, that it would not be inappropriate to invest our resources in the compilation of a short survey of our present position as a great manufacturing ~and marketing centre and decided to embark upon a study of the city's industrial position.
