  • Page | 1 a WALK ROUND POYNTON TAKING in the AREA's MINING
    A WALK ROUND POYNTON TAKING IN THE AREA’S MINING HERITAGE Distance: 6 miles Duration: 2 hrs 45 mins Height Gain: 278 ft Start Grid Ref SJ 92363 83578 (Add between 1- 2 hours to the walk if visiting Anson Engine Museum – also, the walk can be shortened at point 19) Features: Heritage Trail, Interesting Buildings, Museum, Canal, Great Views, Cafe, Pub, Toilets, Mostly Flat. Description : Poynton nestles in the foothills of the southern Pennines and today it is a thriving large village. Few visitors would realise that at one time Poynton had the largest coalfield in Cheshire, having 74 pits in its heyday. Coalmining ceased in 1935 and all pits were capped but there remain many interesting clues to this former industry including buildings and tracks. Apart from providing a glimpse of its recent industrial past, the walk passes by many attractive houses, covers a short stretch of the Macclesfield canal, and provides glorious views over Lyme Park and beyond. Refreshments and toilets are available along the route. If at all possible, find time to visit the Anson Engine Museum which is one of the country’s specialist museums. It has a unique collection of over 250 gas and oil engines, many maintained in running order. It shows the development of the modern combustion engine and boasts a giant scale model of Poynton (c1900) showing the position of the coalfields. The museum is open Fridays, Saturdays, Sundays and Bank Holidays from Easter to the end of October. The Nelson Pit Visitor Centre is close by and contains a comprehensive study of the history of the Poynton coalfields.

  • Bibliography Sources for Further Reading May 2011 National Trust Bibliography
    Bibliography Sources for further reading May 2011 National Trust Bibliography Introduction Over many years a great deal has been published about the properties and collections in the care of the National Trust, yet to date no single record of those publications has been established. The following Bibliography is a first attempt to do just that, and provides a starting point for those who want to learn more about the properties and collections in the National Trust’s care. Inevitably this list will have gaps in it. Do please let us know of additional material that you feel might be included, or where you have spotted errors in the existing entries. All feedback to [email protected] would be very welcome. Please note the Bibliography does not include minor references within large reference works, such as the Encyclopaedia Britannica, or to guidebooks published by the National Trust. How to use The Bibliography is arranged by property, and then alphabetically by author. For ease of use, clicking on a hyperlink will take you from a property name listed on the Contents Page to the page for that property. ‘Return to Contents’ hyperlinks will take you back to the contents page. To search by particular terms, such as author or a theme, please make use of the ‘Find’ function, in the ‘Edit’ menu (or use the keyboard shortcut ‘[Ctrl] + [F]’). Locating copies of books, journals or specific articles Most of the books, and some journals and magazines, can of course be found in any good library.

Reid ABSTRACT This article examines the book collection of Sir Francis Leicester (1674– 1742) of Nether Tabley Hall, Cheshire. It charts the genesis of his collection; from an initial collection inherited from his grandfather Sir Peter Leicester to one directed by the interests of Sir Francis Leicester himself. The kind of collection Sir Francis assembled and whether it had a particular kind of identity is examined. The connections between this collection and those owned by other members of the late seventeenth- and early eighteenth-century elite are considered. Whether national and local scholars knew about his books and were granted access is explored. Evidence is provided for access having been granted by Sir Francis to non-elite readers from a variety of professional backgrounds. These potential readers are identified. Introduction To understand what kinds of books were available to members of the Cheshire nobility and gentry in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, most researchers have considered the National Trust collections at Dunham Massey, Lyme, and Tatton.1 However, during their long lives, these three properties were just part of a network of many similar estates within the county, and almost all would have had some kind of library or collection of books.

  • Landscape Character Assessment Appendices
    Appendix 1 Landscape Character Area Profiles 2009 Cheshire East Landscape Character Assessment 161 LCT 1: Sandstone Ridge 1a: Peckforton Character Area Including Peckforton Hill, Bulkely Hill & Rawhead This upland character area forms a very prominent ridge of steep-sided wooded hills which appear to rise abruptly out of the surrounding flat or undulating farmland. The ridge forms a distinctive skyline in views from adjacent areas and the more distant parts of the Lowland Plain to both east and west. The abundant woodland is especially noticeable as it is in marked contrast to the scarcity of woodland cover over much of the surrounding farmland. The dense tree cover can create a very small-scale insular landscape, with views channelled along narrow tracks or woodland drives. Elsewhere, elevated viewpoints provide spectacular views, often framed or glimpsed between mature trees, over the surrounding low lying farmland. These extend in all directions to the very distant horizons of higher ground, such as the Peak District to the east and the Welsh Hills to the west. This character area is separated from the Eddisbury Sandstone Ridge character area to the north by the Beeston Gap. Over looking the gap at the northern end of the ridge is the grade I listed Peckforton Castle. Beeston Castle, on the neighbouring Sandstone Fringe, features prominently in views to the north. The poor soils of the ridge are well endowed with woodland habitats and some of the steeper slopes have been continuously wooded for many hundreds of years and are designated as Ancient Woodland. Other wooded areas are often much younger, having developed naturally from neglected heath or grassland.
