    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.

    South Shropshire 1973-2007

    South Shropshire District Council Election Results 1973-2007 Colin Rallings and Michael Thrasher The Elections Centre Plymouth University The information contained in this report has been obtained from a number of sources. Election results from the immediate post-reorganisation period were painstakingly collected by Alan Willis largely, although not exclusively, from local newspaper reports. From the mid- 1980s onwards the results have been obtained from each local authority by the Elections Centre. The data are stored in a database designed by Lawrence Ware and maintained by Brian Cheal and others at Plymouth University. Despite our best efforts some information remains elusive whilst we accept that some errors are likely to remain. Notice of any mistakes should be sent to [email protected]. The results sequence can be kept up to date by purchasing copies of the annual Local Elections Handbook, details of which can be obtained by contacting the email address above. Front cover: the graph shows the distribution of percentage vote shares over the period covered by the results. The lines reflect the colours traditionally used by the three main parties. The grey line is the share obtained by Independent candidates while the purple line groups together the vote shares for all other parties. Rear cover: the top graph shows the percentage share of council seats for the main parties as well as those won by Independents and other parties. The lines take account of any by- election changes (but not those resulting from elected councillors switching party allegiance) as well as the transfers of seats during the main round of local election.
