Google
This is a digital copy of a book that was preserved for generations on library shelves before it was carefully scanned by Google as part of a project
to make the world's books discoverable online.
It has survived long enough for the copyright to expire and the book to enter the public domain. A public domain book is one that was never subject
to copyright or whose legal copyright term has expired. Whether a book is in the public domain may vary country to country. Public domain books
are our gateways to the past, representing a wealth of history, culture and knowledge that's often difficult to discover.
Marks, notations and other maiginalia present in the original volume will appear in this file - a reminder of this book's long journey from the
publisher to a library and finally to you.

public and we are merely their custodians. Nevertheless, this work is expensive, so in order to keep providing tliis resource, we liave taken steps to
prevent abuse by commercial parties, including placing technical restrictions on automated querying.

+ Refrain fivm automated querying Do not send automated queries of any sort to Google's system: If you are conducting research on machine
translation, optical character recognition or other areas where access to a large amount of text is helpful, please contact us. We encourage the
use of public domain materials for these purposes and may be able to help.
+ Maintain attributionTht GoogXt "watermark" you see on each file is essential for in forming people about this project and helping them find
additional materials through Google Book Search. Please do not remove it.
+ Keep it legal Whatever your use, remember that you are responsible for ensuring that what you are doing is legal. Do not assume that just
because we believe a book is in the public domain for users in the United States, that the work is also in the public domain for users in other
countries. Whether a book is still in copyright varies from country to country, and we can't offer guidance on whether any specific use of
any specific book is allowed. Please do not assume that a book's appearance in Google Book Search means it can be used in any manner
anywhere in the world. Copyright infringement liabili^ can be quite severe.

TRANSACTIONS
AN ACCOUNT OF ;^2ooo LEVIED UPON
THE COUNTY OF LANCASTER FOR
THE USE OF THE PARLIAMENTARY
ARMY IN 1643-4
By Lieut. -Colonel Henry Fiskwick, F.S.A.
Read 15th February 1906
MAJOR-GENERAL Sir Thomas Fairfax
marched from Manchester to relieve the
town of Nantwich, on the 21st January 1643-4;
he took with him 2500 foot soldiers and 28 troops
of horsemen. A few days afterwards the siege of
Nantwich was raised and the king s army defeated.
It was shortly before Fairfax left Manchester that,
in accordance with an order of the Lords and
Commons, a meeting of Deputy- Lieutenants was
held and a decision come to that the sum above
named was to be collected in Lancashire, and,
after the victory at Nantwich, it was ordered that
the amount collected should be paid to Sir Thomas
Fairfax for the use of hi^ soldiers. The document
exhibited to-night is the original account of the
collector of this money ; it was found amongst a
bundle of old manuscripts, lately presented to the
Rochdale Public Library and Museum.
As the assessments for the Hundreds of Blackburn
and Salford were made by townships, and the Con-
stables were appointed as the agent through whom
the money was to be collected, the document is of
2 An Account of £2000 Levied upon County of
much interest, as it not only furnishes a list of Con-
stables for those two Divisions, but also the compara-
tive assessable value of each township. Upon what
basis this valuation was reckoned we have unfor-
tunately no knowledge. Most of the townships
paid the full sum demanded, but in a few places not
more than one-half appears to have been received.
For the Hundreds of West Derby, Leyland, and
Amounderness, the respective High Constables
were empowered to collect the tax, whilst in
Lonsdale agents were appointed by Colonel
Doddinge. In the Hundreds of West Derby,
Leyland, Lonsdale, and Amounderness, it appears
that it was intended that a weekly charge for
one month was to be collected, and the appeal
did not receive a very liberal support in the
first-named Hundred, where £^%o was demanded ;
only ;^i95, 4s. 6d. was paid, and in none of the
others was the full sum realised, but Lonsdale was
only about ;^20 short of the agreement. For the
whole county the total amount received towards
the £2000 was ;^i35i, 3s. 3d.
The Treasurer for the county appointed by the
Deputy- Lieutenants to receive all moneys collected
for the purposes of the war was Humphrey Chetham
of Clayton Hall ; he was selected at a meeting in
Manchester on 21st October 1643. On the 24th
March 1643-4, General Fairfax complained that
part of the ;^ 2 000 was still unpaid, and ** ordered
the Treasurer'* immediately upon the receipt of the
said arrears to paye the same to Colonell John
Lambert. In the accounts of Humphrey Chetham
under the date 20th March 1643 is the item " Pd.
Mr. Tho. S' Nicholas in Manchester £\oo^ 00. 00."
According to the document now before us ;^300
was the amount then paid. The expenditure on
maintenance of horses kept at Clayton for Sir
Thomas Fairfax's troops was considerable, as shown
Lancaster for Use of Parliamentary Army 3
by the details furnished in Mr. Sutton's " Life of
Humphrey Chetham." ^
Except for a reference to certain horses kept **in
my stable at Clayton/* there is nothing in the docu-
ment to indicate that Humphrey Chetham was the
Treasurer, but external evidence proves this is un-
doubtedly his account of the money collected.
Of Mr. Thomas St. Nicholas nothing is known,
except that he appears to have acted as Treasurer
to Sir Thomas Fairfax.
** An accompt of twoe thousand powndes charged

deputie Lieftennants a litle before that tyme S*'

THE EXCAVATIONS ON THE ROMANO-
BRITISH SITE AT WILDERSPOOL
DURING 1905
By Thomas May, F.S.A. {Scot,)
Read 15th November 1906.
NO work has been done during the season just
ended (1906) on the Romano-British site at
Wilderspool, but during the autumn of 1905 ex-
cavation was continued by the writer, with the
assistance of an experienced excavator, Mr. John
Hallows (employed by the Museum Committee of the
Warrington Corporation on condition of receiving
the finds), in the home paddock of Messrs. Greenall,
Whitley & Co., who very liberally renewed their
permission upon the kind intervention of Lady
Greenall of Walton Hall.
Commencing in the south-west corner of the
field and proceeding northwards in geographical
sequence and in the order of discovery, the remains
of the Romano-British settlement uncovered or
explored during 1 905 (the season being a short one,
owing to the smallness of the grant) may be sum-
marised as consisting of eleven separate items, viz.
six refuse pits (1-6); two courtyards or oblong
areas paved with cobble-stones or small boulders
(7-8) ; lines of clay bedding, rubble, and other
traces of walling on east, south, and west belonging
to a dwelling or workshop, and a clay floor partly
covering the enclosure (9) ; the base of a rever-
es
1 6 The Excavations on the Romano-British
beratory furnace of clay upon the west side of the
floor (lo) ; and a nailor*s workshop, consisting of a
pit in the ground set round with stone blocks for
an anvil, &c., in front of a smithy-furnace of massive
boulder-clay, to which there was a row of stepping-
stones from the direction of the north Via (i i).
The refuse pits were generally mere sinkings
two or three feet below the original surface, and
though sometimes deeper and roughly lined with
clay or stones, they have only been examined and
separately specified on account of their contents.
The subsoil, as previously stated, is a pure glacial
sand-bed intercalated with beds of fine grey loam
and water-bearing gravel, which renders the site
a dry and salubrious one, and makes deep sinkings
dangerous and unnecessary. It also renders the
** forced soil " easy to distinguish for excavation
purposes and easy to handle except where mixed
with imported clay. The Roman stratum, else-
where than in the refuse pits, is seldom more than
2 or 3 feet thick under about a foot of humus.
Refuse Pit (i) was outside the fortified area,
32 feet from the face of the west rampart, in the
midst of the iron-smelting and glass furnaces de-
scribed in my report for the seasons of 1899 and
I9CH3 {Transactions, 1900, n.s., vol. xvi.). Its depth
was 9 feet 6 inches, and, at 6 inches below the
existing grass level, it was covered with a bed of
hard yellow clay 1 2 feet square and from 6 inches
to I foot 6 inches thick. The surface of the latter
was much reddened by heat near the middle, where
was a basin-shaped cavity 3 feet long by 2 feet
6 inches wide and 9 inches deep in the centre,
calcined throughout, resembling a sunk hearth or
base of a furnace. The pit, for a farther depth
of 4 to 5 feet, was filled with masses of clay alter-
nating with layers of ash-blackened sandy soil,
which were too barren to repay removal, and were
Site at Wilderspool during 1905 17
simply cut through on the south side. This con-
fused mass seemed to consist of waste clay from
broken-down furnaces or deposits for new construc-
tions placed ready to hand. The lower portion of
the pit, which was about 8 feet in diameter and
3 to 4 feet deep, contained ash-blackened sandy
loam impregnated with shards of coarse red un-
glazed earthenware and amphorae, decayed teeth
of oxen and bits of charcoal, but nothing of special
significance.
A fragment of cannel-coal was found at a depth
of I foot 9 inches in the clay.
The remains of a cob-wall (rough stones and
clay), I foot 6 inches wide, along the east side of
the clay cover, and sandstone blocks roughly squared
by cleavage on its surface, suggested that it had
been utilised as the floor of a workman's hut.
Though the contents of the pit were so extremely
meagre, the objects obtained in the substance of
the clay floor, and from 6 inches to 2 feet below
the surface of the surrounding soil (part of which
had been recently removed to a modern sand-pit),
were numerous and interesting, as confirming evi-
dence of conclusions already indicated regarding
the nature of the industries in progress close at
hand during the Roman occupation, viz. glass-
making and iron-smelting. They include : —
Coins. — A first brass and two second bronze coins
of Trajan, in a bad state from wear and corrosion,
found at depths of 7 inches, i foot, and i foot
3 inches respectively, a few feet from the north-
west and south-west corners of the clay cover or
floor. Owing to its condition, the larger coin was
undecipherable. The lettering of the legends of
the other two, so far as legible, are the following : —

Reverse : Draped female figure seated turned to left.
Bronze. — Fastening - plate of a small hook or
buckle, f inch by f inch and \ inch thick, has an
oblong slot at one end, and the shank of a broken
hook at the other, and is ornamented with a trellis
pattern, marginal grooves, and pierced work
(moulded).
Semi-lunette of thin sheet brass or bronze with
small holes for rivets close to the margin.
Fragment, 2 inches by if inch and \ inch thick,
from inside base of a crucible of greyish highly
siliceous clay coated on the inside with green car-
bonate of bronze or copper.
Iron. — Several nails from 2 to 3 inches in length.
Ring, i^ inch outside, i inch inside diameter.
Lead. — Triangular prism sharp edged, ^^ by
\ inch on two sides, f inch wide on the other,
with a puncture \ inch deep and wide on one of
the larger sides, — of unknown use, but would form
an effective sling-bolt.
Strip, 3 inches by \ inch by \ inch.
Mass of torn and broken sheet weighing about
1 lb. rolled together.
Two small slabs, 2\ inches by if inch and \ to
\ inch thick, folded lengthwise and resembling
tubes in process of manufacture.
Small lump found in the middle of the hearth.
Glass, — Several pieces, the largest about 2 inches
square, from the bulge of two ribbed bowls of vary-
ing shades of pure glistening amber colour, thin,
blown-moulded material and perfect technique.
Portions of such bowls in dark-blue have been
found in other localities (described as pillar-
Site at Wilderspool during 1905 19
moulded), and a whole one at Silchester of
sapphire blue streaked with white and with yellow
spots {Arckcsologia^ vol. Iv., Part I., p. 231). They
are assumed to be an importation from Italy, but
as the Wilderspool specimens have been found
near to a glass-maker's furnace along with numerous
fragments, several amorphous lumps {masses)^ and
two parts of collapsed bottle-necks of similar
material and evidently "cullet" (glass-maker's
waste), it is not a mere assumption, but an in-
ference based upon more or less complete evidence,
that the bowls to which the fragments belong
were made upon the spot.
Lower part of handle of ewer or bottle of amber
glass.
Several fragments of square bottles of common
bluish-green.
Ribbed bead, diameters ^ inch by ^ inch, string-
hole f inch, of translucent sapphire blue.
Pottery. — In addition to numerous fragments of
black, grey, and red unglazed earthenware, and a
few pieces of terra sigillata (Samian), there were
one or two pottery specimens worthy of special
mention, viz. : —
A small bit of terra nigra from the moulded rim
of a large upright sided patera, represented by
Figs. I or 2, Plate I., in the article on Terra Sigillata,
Bonner J akrbuecher, Part 96 (1895), P« i8» ^7 Hans
Dragendorff, wherein he has identified the types
and determined the chronological sequence of this
rare and early (first century) description of pottery.
Portion of the angular moulded rim of small urn
of very hard grey paste (like porcelain) coated on
the outside with black varnish, with a band of
rough-cast round the middle of the bulge, and
smooth polished above.
Portion of the rim of a larger urn of soft local
brick-red clay coated with white slip, painted in red
20 The Excavations on the Romano- British
with small twigs here and there, and having two
raised cordons round the upper portion of the bulge.
Large fragment (about half) of an ** indented*'
urn of hard dark-brown paste and ** rough-cast"
surface, originally about 8 inches high, and 6 inches
in diameter.
Miscellaneous. — One lump of red raddle (haema-
tite ore), and two of clayband iron ore.
Several lumps of greyish-white vesicular scoriae
or slag.
A lump of barytes (identified by Professor Boyd
Dawkins, D.D., F.S.A.).
A small piece of galena or lead ore.
A stone ''rammer" and a ** sleeker" similar to
those found beside the closely adjoining moulder s
floors described in my last preceding report ( Trans-
actions^ 1904, n.s., vol. xx.).
A potter s ** rib '* or ** sleeker " of cannel with
worn rounded edges.
Angular splinter of calcined flint and many small
splinters of white quartz pebbles. (These are
specified owing to their connection with the manu-
facture of fine glass, and because the flint is an
imported material.)
Refuse Pit (2) was situated about the same dis-
tance from the west rampart, on the outside, and
36 yards northwards from the preceding in a direct
line. Its total depth was 9 feet, of which the lower
portion was steined to a height of 4 feet with un-
hewn sandstone blocks set in stiff" clay, forming a
roughly squared shaft 4 feet 6 inches by 3 feet
6 inches across. The funnel-shaped upper portion,
measuring about 6 feet to 9 feet in diameter across
the top, was a confused mass of ask-blackened sand
and clay similar to that filling the lower shaft, and
was covered with a level floor of stiff boulder-clay,
the surface of which was 2 feet 6 inches below the
grass. On three sides the borders of the pit had a
Site at Wilder spool during 1905 21
rough pitching of cobbles, which expanded on the
east side into courtyard, 9 feet square, paved with
small boulders, giving access to a large slab of
sandstone set on end, sloping down to the edge
of the pit (which rose vertically on this side), and
forming a kind of shoot.
The back and sides of a small fireplace or rude
melting-furnace, consisting of three slabs of sand-
stone set on edge, were in position on the original
surface near the north-west corner of the pit. The
fire-seat or enclosed area of the furnace was only
6 by 8 inches across, and its significance arises
from the fact that lumps of iron slag were found
beside and underneath two of the stones, and bits
of charcoal, mineral coal, iron cinder, and corroded
bronze on the floor level round about.
The following are the noteworthy contents of the
pit : —
Gem. — Small onyx (a kind of agate) of lenticular
shape and perfect proportions for ring setting, in
two layers, pearl-grey above and brown beneath,
the top layer cut in intaglio with a rude representa-
tion of a charging bull. Though the art is not of
a high order, the design is finely polished on the
inside, and though the upper surface of the stone
IS roughened by wear, the remainder is beautifully
smooth and glistening. It was found in the confused
filling at 3 feet 6 inches below ground level.
(Plate I. Fig. II.)
Coins. — A second bronze {duponditis) of Trajan,
legend corroded and undecipherable, was found at
3 inches less depth.
At 1 1 feet from the north-east corner of the pit,
and only i foot 3 inches below grass level, a silver
denarius was obtained, which, though much worn,
was identified by Mr. Charles H. Read, F.S.A., of
the British Museum, as being of Mark Antony,
struck' just before the battle of Actium, 35 b.c.
2 2 The Excavations on the Romano-British
Bronze. — The pointed end of a pin and quite a
number of small corroded fragments, which coloured
the surrounding soil and appeared to be sweepings
or workshop waste.
Head of a broken fibula, harp-shaped, hinged, of
flat-oval section, with chain-loop and silver-gilt, or
composed of some greyish non-corrodible alloy ;
ornamented with deep grooves and sharp-edged
collar -mouldings on the middle of the bow.
(Plate I. Fig. i.)
Iron. — Socketed iron hook, like the head of a
shepherd s crook, 5 inches in total length, the bow
of the hook 2\ inches in diameter, and the socket
I inch in diameter.
Lead. — A small rivet and several small strips
and amorphous lumps of workshop waste.
Glass. — Fragment from the side of a globular
vessel of purplish-tinted glass.
Several fragments of the greenish-tinted com-
moner kind of square bottles.
Pottery. — Among the usual number of fragments
of coarse eat*thenware there was part of the rim of
a mortarium, with the potter*s name in worn and
illegible characters.
Among a few of plain terra sigillata from near
the bottom was part of the base of a patera, form 3 1
(Dragendorff), with the potter's stamp (P>4)TRICI,
and others of embossed bowls, form 2>1 (Dragen-
dorff), viz. {a) part of bulge ornamented with figures
framed in metopes and small medallions in the style
of the second or third century, made at Lezoux, and
stamped with the potter's name IVS(irt^5) on a
raised label in sunk letters reversed ; (b) portion of

Site at Wilderspool during 1905 23
fesenque,. France, in the first century, whose pro-
ductions have been found among the ruins of
Pompeii, beneath the ashes of Vesuvius, which
buried the city in a.d. 79 ; {c) part of brim with
figures framed in semi-medaUions of a later period ;
(d) part of base pierced with a hole which retains a
leaden rivet used for mending.
Miscellaneous, — Several pieces of calcined clay
from the inside lining of a furnace cavity having a
surface actually melted into black glass and forming
drops owing to the intense heat of the fire. (Such
debris of furnaces has been frequently met with
during the excavations.) Lump of clay band iron
ore at 2 feet 6 inches down. Slag or iron scoriae
at 2 feet 9 inches down. Cubes of ordinary mineral
coal at 2 feet 6 inches down. A lump of slag con-
taining free bronze or copper in a corroded condition
at 8 feet down.
Decomposed segments of lava guerns and teeth
of ox and pig also much decomposed.
Refuse Pit (3). — A hole in the ground, covered
with a layer of red-burnt sandy clay 3 inches
to 4 inches thick and 3 feet to 4 feet square,
was 3 feet 6 inches deep and 6 feet in diameter,
and situated in the south-west angle of the forti-
fied area, away from any structured remains, being
come upon in driving one of the exploratory
trenches.
The following are the noteworthy contents : —
Bronze. — Enamelled bow-shaped hinged fibula,
without cross-bar, and with a chain-loop on the
head ; the flat surface of the bow, from the head to
beyond the middle, decorated with three rows of
rectangular chequers, pale green alternating with
deep orange-red ; the margins defined by neatly
incised lines. The front of the bow has also a
circular boss filled in (on the top) with faded scarlet
enamel. The foot tapers in graceful curves to a
24 The Excavations on the Romano- British
terminal knob encircled by beaded cordons. Length
2\ inches. (Plate I. Fig. 5.)
A fibula of similar design, ornamentation, and
dimensions found on the surface of the ancient
buried forest when bared by the sea at Great
Meols, on the coast of the Wirral peninsula, is
described and illustrated by Dr. A. Hume {Ancient
Meols^ Plate III. Fig. 5, p. 63).
An almost exactly similar one was also previously
found at Wilderspool, and affords further evidence
in support of the conclusion previously arrived at,
after discovery of the remains of a bronze-founder's
and enameller*s workshop, that these and similar
objects were manufactured in this locality.
Pottery. — Greyish-brown to black vessel of ciner-
ary urn type (broken on one side only), 7^ inches
in height and 6f inches across the brim, having a
polished shoulder and belt, 3^^ inches wide, of trellis-
pattern ornament in light tooled lines round the
bulge.
In addition to a few bits of plain terra sigillata
dishes and cups, forms 31 and 33 (Dragendorff),
there were the usual number of coarse unglazed
fragments, one of which was of thin hard reddish-
brown paste, decorated with vertical striae produced
with the roulette.
The Remains of a Dwelling or Workshop (9)
were uncovered inside the north-west angle of the
fortification where the main rampart and accom-
panying Via turn nearly at a right angle to follow
in a north-easterly direction the line of the river
bank. Here, unfortunately, a large slice of the
Romano - British stratum, measuring at least 29
yards from east to west by 36 yards in the other
direction, had been previously removed for the
purpose of obtaining sand or providing a direct
access to the field from the adjoining street
(Greenalls Avenue or Old Chester Road), and in
Siie at WiUierspool during 1905 25
this way the north wall of the building, to be pre-
sently described, had also been eradicated. The
remains in question formed part of the ** Long
Corridor House," briefly referred to in my report
for the year k^q^ {Transactions, vol. xvi. p. 16),
and more fully described in my papers entitled
Warrington s Roman Remains, recently published,
page II.
Their position can also be traced by reference to
the plan of the settlement which appeared more
recently in the Transactions, 1904, vol. xx. A
line of walling, 2 feet 6 inches wide, consisting of a
double row of squared facing stones filled in with
rubble and consolidated with clay on a bedding of
similar clay 2 inches thick and 3 feet wide, is laid
down in the plan, and described as starting at
96 feet from the north fence of the field (along
GreenalFs Avenue), and extending 80 feet east-
wards at right angles to the Via, but is shown
without any return walls at its outer or eastern
extremity, although prolonged search for them was
then unsuccessfully made. On opening up the
adjoining ground during the more recent excava-
tions (1905) the clay bedding of the same line
of walling was traced for a farther distance
of 4 feet 6 inches, or a total distance of 84 feet
6 inches from the Via. At its extremity a similar
bed of clay 2 feet 6 inches to 3 feet wide, extending
northwards for a distance of 37 feet 6 inches from
the end of the preceding, and having upon its
surface patches of rubble foundation here and there,
gave the line of the east wall of the enclosure
previously sought in vain. The angle formed by
the junction of these two lines of walling at the
south-east corner of the enclosure is somewhat less
than a right angle, since the north end of the latter
was about 2 feet inside its true position as found
by calculation, an irregularity not uncommon in
26 The Excavations on the Romano-British
buildings of the period and not perceptible to the
naked eye.
The presumed north wall of the enclosure, and
everything beyond it on that side, had, as above
stated, been previously removed.
Similarly the rooting up of the stones for further
use or in the course of agriculture was found to
have rendered the remains of walling on the west
side very spafse and indefinite, so that its line could
in places only be recognised by reference to the
limits of the clay floor covering two-thirds of the
northern portion of the enclosed area.
At the floor-level of the southern portion there
was a yellow, powdery layer of burnt sand, 2 or
3 inches thick, and about 10 feet wide from north
to south. The remainder Qf the floor — a layer of
well-puddled brown boulder-clay covering a space
of about 24 feet square — was mostly about 3 inches
thick, but increased in thickness to 3 feet beside
the long reverberatory furnace which occupied, the
greater portion of its west side ; it was found at
varying levels, there being a depression along the
same side to give access to the stoke-hole of the
furnace.
The dimensions of the workshop or enclosure
over all (including the thickness of the walls) was
consequently at least 37 feet from north to south by
25 feet wide.
To ascertain the relation of these newly-dis-
covered foundations to those previously traced at
the south-west angle of the enclosure, a portion
was again uncovered of the end of the line of
walling mentioned in my preceding report ( Trans-
actions, 1900, vol. xvi. p. 16) as commencing at
2 1 feet from the Via and running nearly parallel to
the long south wall (84 feet 6 inches in length) for
a distance of 40 feet, and it was found that the long
corridor or alley (7 feet wide at its eastern extremity)
Site at Wilderspoo I during 1905 27
between the two walls was a passage leading from
the Via to both die workshop and the smithy-
furnace there situated, as shown upon the plan and
accompanying photographic plate.
The character of the overwalling of these solid
foundations can be inferred from the quantity of
broken bricks of very dense consistency, blue on
the inside and nearly 2\ inches thick, lying on the
surface of the floor, which may have formed the
material of dwarf walls ; and from the number of
iron nails, 2\ to 3 inches in length, and lumps of
partly-burnt sandy clay, 2 to 3 inches thick, smooth
on one side and on the other side marked by parallel
grooves, half an inch deep, f to i inch wide, and
2 or 3 inches apart, evidently the remains of ** wattle
and daub," which may have been the filling of a
timber-frame superstructure or the lining of brick
or stone walls — probably the former, as the fallen
clay was in layers on both sides of the foundations
of the east and south walls.
The absence of tiles and stone roofing-flags, of
which fragments were so abundant on the floor-
level of one or two other dwelling-houses on
adjoining sites, is an indication that the roofing
was composed of shingles or thatch, although it
is difficult to understand how lead could have been
employed along with the latter materials. That
lead had been used for water spouting or for some
other purpose in connection with the building was
inferred from the masses of lead in a loose amor-
phous condition, mixed with sand, charcoal, and
clay, just as it had run down when molten during
a conflagration which destroyed the building, being
likewise found along the edges of the south and
east walls in several places.
Base of a Long Reverberatory Furnace (10). —
The base of a clay furnace referred to as occupying
a large portion of the west side of the floor was
28 The Excavations on the Romano- British
similar in construction to many others that have
been described, viz. an oblong cavity with a stoke-
hole sloping downwards from it in front and a nar-
row "working-door" giving access to it without
withdrawing the fire from a corner of the rear,
lined throughout with calcined clay of a light-buff
colour, and surrounded by a platform of massive
boulder-clay much reddened by heat all round the
sides of the cavity. The sides of the stoke-hole
were similarly supported by stone jambs coated
with clay, and the usual semicircular hearth in front
of the latter was likewise of calcined clay carefully
laid on a layer of cobbles and set round with stone
blocks.
The interior of this and all the other of these
so-called reverberatory furnaces was filled with
terra-cotta fragments and red burnt clay, the re-
mains of an overarched covering which reflected
the heat of the fire on to the surface of the material
forming the charge, and thereby justifies the name.
Possibly they were provided with an upright shaft
of some description for the purpose of increasing
the draught, but of which no trace has been ob^
served.
Dimensions
Furnace Cavity. — Length, 4 feet 6 inches ; width,
from I foot 6 inches across the middle to i foot
10 inches across either end; depth, from 3 inches
at the back of the stoke-hole, increasing with a
slight batter in both directions to 10 inches at the
mouth of the latter and to 6 inches at the rear of
the furnace opposite the ** working door." A basin-
shaped depression, 7 inches in diameter and 3 inches
deep at this spot, which may be termed the well,
was possibly produced by wear. Working-Door or
Flue. — Length, i foot ; width, 6 inches to 8 inches,
increasing outwards. Stoke-hole^ — Length, i foot;
.Site at Wilderspool during 1905 29
width, 10 inches, increasing outwards to i foot.
Hearth. — Width across the mouth of the furnace,
3 feet 6 inches, and in line with its longer axis,
3 feet to 3 feet 3 inches, being rather more than a
semicircle in plan and slightly domed in the centre.
The following is a list of objects from the imme-
diate vicinity of the enclosure, and recorded at the
time as having been found between i foot 3 inches
and 2 feet below the natural surface of the ground : —
Coin. — Large brass {sestertius) of Trajan ;
Obverse: IMP CAES NERVA TRAIAN GER DAC
PM TRP PP, laureated bust of emperor to right.
Reverse: SPQR OPTIMO PRINCIPI, female draped
figure holding a cornucopia in her left hand and
walking to left. Its legibility shows the coin to be
in unusually fine and well preserved condition for
this locality.
Bronze. — Bow-shaped fibula, 2 inches in length,
with cross-bar, and ornamented with three longi-
tudinal grooves separated by sharp ridges (fluting)
along the outside of the bow, which tapers gradually
from head to foot. (Plate I. Fig. 3.)
Enamelled bronze brooch circular in shape, \\
inch in diameter, with hinged pin and bent catch-
plate complete, but slightly damaged with the spade.
The centre is conical and ornamented with a pro-
jecting knob on a cone, f inch in diameter, set
round with five discs and with a flat ring set round
with fourteen discs, \ inch in diameter, in faded
greenish champlev6 enamel. Round the edge six
small knobs project at equal distances, three above
and three below, with two larger ones, \ inch in
diameter, having incised rings and central dots by
way of ornament on either side. (Plate I. Fig. 2.)
Bolt of lock slightly bent, 2^ inches in length,
\ inch wide and \ inch thick, having two slots, in
the form of a St. Andrew^s cross, for reception of
the bits of the key. (Plate I. Fig. 6.)
30 The Excavations on the Romano-British
One half of a pentagonal plate-hinge with iron
pin and one rivet for fastening it to the door or lid.
(Plate I. Fig. 7.)
Iron. — Cover-plate or casing, 8 inches by 7^
inches, for the lower part of the blade of a wooden
spade, with a large central rivet and two triangular
side wings folded over for fastening it to the wood,
a portion of which was retained in a decayed condi-
tion within the folds.
Square-headed door-staple, i inch side, with bolt-
hole \ inch across, and spike 2^ inches in length for
driving into the wood.
Catch-plate or staple, 2f inches by if inch, with
two spikes at right angles for driving into the
wood.
T-clamp for fastening revetting tiles to a wall.
Many nails, 2 to 3 inches in length, of which
about sixty were actually counted.
Cup in the shape of a spherical segment, diameter
3 inches, depth i^ inch.
Lead. — Several lumps, splashes, and scattered
drops mixed with sand, clay, and charcoal, as they
had fallen from the roof in a melted state during a
conflagration, were found at the floor-level inside
and outside the east and south walls.
Spindle-whorl, i inch in diameter, \ inch thick,
\ inch bore.
Glass. — Small lump of greyish-blue frit or crude
enamel ; triangular fragment of flat window-glass,
dull on one side.
Pottery. — The fragments of unglazed black and
brick-red earthenware were exceptionally numerous,
along with those of mortaria and light-buff amphorae.
A small oval-bodied unglazed urn of cinerary
type, dirty brown to black in colour, unornamented
except by a slight groove round the outside edge of
the base, a^\ inches in height, 3f inches in diameter
across the brim, and 2f inches across the base, was
Site at Wilderspool during 1905 31
obtained whole beside the iron spade-cover at about
2 feet below the grass just outside the south wall.
Among the few fragments of terra sigillata was
half of the base of a patera, form 31 (Dragendorff),
with a portion of the potters stamp {PAT^ NAFE,
a potter of Gaul, whose name has been mfet with
previously at Wilderspool and at two other localities
in Britain, viz. London and Cirencester.
Miscellaneous. — Bits of raddle or haematite ore ;
a large lump of iron slag on the surface of the floor
and several smaller ones from an ash-blackened
layer of soil which separated the upper floor from
the scattered remains of what was apparently an
earlier floor of less area underneath ; fragments of
cannel-coal and ordinary mineral coal from the same
layer between the two floors, thus affording evidence
of iron-working having been carried on in the two
furnaces situated within the same enclosure, viz.
the long reverberatory furnace and the smithy-
hearth found in 1899 close at hand.
Several of the many pieces of charcoal found at
the level of the upper floor retained the shape of
the original wood, in the form of small rods about
\ inch in diameter, which may have been ** wattles"
from the burnt walls.
Segment of a quern or hand-mill of millstone grit.
Stone ** sleeker'* of triangular shape, 4 inches on
each side by \ inch thick, with edges and angles
rounded by wear.
Refuse Pits (3-5). — The particular purpose for
which the furnace was used was further evidenced
by the contents of three refuse pits closely adjoin-
ing and partly underneath the floor, (3) and (4)
along the north side, measuring 6 feet and 4 feet
deep, and 3 feet 6 inches and 4 feet 6 inches wide
respectively ; and (5), near to its north-east angle,
5 feet deep and wide, viz.> fifty-two iron nails, a few
lumps of heavy iron slag, one of red raddle or
32 The Excavations on the Romano-British
haematite ore, many bits of charcoal, and two of
ordinary mineral coal at depths of from 3 to 5 feet
from the surface ; a small lump or splash of lead ;
several large fragments of 2\ inch thick, dense,
heavy brick, and many fragments of common un-
glazed red and black earthenware. Of more artistic
character were a portion of a terra sigillata bowl,
form 2il (Dragendorff), with figures representing
the Infant Hercules strangling the serpents, and
Apollo seated holding a lyre (variants of types 464
and 52 in Dechelette's list), and a cruciform pattern
in the style peculiar to the end of the first or be-
ginning of the second century ; eight portions of
dishes or cups of the form 3 1 or 33 (Dragendorff), and
part of the rim of a mortarium of coarse paste with
the potter's stamp C ATTIV(5) MARIN(t^5) in two
lines reversed, a name recorded in my preceding
report (Transactions ^ 1900, vol. xvi. p. 51).
A beautifully pure glittering crystalline glass
bead, \ inch in diameter, splintered slightly upon
the surface, but otherwise undecayed, and a few
fragments of similar material are also worthy of
particular mention, and were found at the bottom
of pit (5). .
A small flint implement (f by ^ by ^ inch) beauti-
fully worked with two edges and mid-rib ; splinters
of calcined bone and decayed teeth of ox and horse,
and part of a quern of millstone grit found in the
same pits should likewise be recorded.
Paved Courtyard (8). — Commencing at 4 feet
north from the preceding, there was an oblong
pavement, measuring 14 feet 6 inches from north
to south by 8 feet, not in line with the wall of
the next adjoining building from which its dis-
tance varied from 13 feet 6 inches on south to 15
feet 6 inches on north. The surface was pitched
with large cobbles (small water- worn or ice- worn
boulders of very hard stone), along with a patch
Site at Wzlderspool during 1905 33
of gravel and a few broken pieces of dense brick,
and had a slight batter towards the east side.
Fragments of Samian and coarse pottery, clay-
daubing with the impress of wattles, iron slag, and
charcoal lying upon it, displayed its Romano- British
origin.
Smithy Furnace or Nailors Forge (11). — At 14
feet still farther northwards, 22 feet from the north-
east atigle of the walled enclosure (9), and 1 1 1
feet from the north fence along Greenall's Avenuej
this peculiar furnace was uncovered, which may be
regarded as of unique construction. There are no
regular curves or straight lines for its admeasure-
ment or for the laying down of its plan, and equi-
distant ordinates had to l^e employed. In general
terms it may be described as a panier-shaped fire-
place (smithy-hearth or crucible) of clay, 2 feet deep,
set up against the side of a hole in the ground, the
hole being 8 feet in diameter, and 5 feet deep
originally, excavated in the soft bed of sand. Half-
way round one side the hole was lined with sand-
stone blocks to a height of from 2 to 3 feet, one
of the largest stones being square and solidly bedded
for supporting an anvil on die workman's left rear
when facing the furnace. The other side was
covered with a sloping wall of massive, well-
puddled boulder-clay, 6 inches to a foot thick, the
clay cover being continued across the bottom,
where a flat stone was provided for the workmen
to stand upon, and round the sloping margin of
the pit in the form of a crescent, where its surface
was calcined, to furnish a convenient platform for
the hot ashes and heaps of charcoal or other fuel
employed in the furnace. On the right-hand side
of the platform there was a funnel-shaped depression
with a gutter leading down to the interior of the
fire-place, so that fuel could be easily raked into it,
and an L-shaped strip of iron (width i^ inch, thick-
c
34 The Excavations on the Romano^British
ness f inch, length of long arm 3^ inches, short arm
2\ inches), which may have formed the head of
the rake, was found in the hole. A convenient
bench for a pair of bellows or for the tools of the
workman, constructed also of clay, ran along the
front of the gutter, sloping downwards and about
1 foot wide.
The fire-place had originally a semicircular front
wall of clay 6 inches to i foot thick (increasing
downwards), which was found in a collapsed con-
dition and bent inwards against the back (but not
broken), so that a square middle-section had to be
cut away before the shape and dimensions of the
interior could Be determined. The section, i foot
3 inches deep, and from i foot 4 inches to i foot
9 inches wide (increasing upwards), can be plainly
seen in the photograph.
The original inside dimensions were : — Depth
2 feet, length and breadth across the opening 2 feet
9 inches by i foot 3 inches, length and breadth of
base 9 inches by 3 inches. A small hole, 2 inches
in diameter on one side of the base, was evidently
for drainage purposes.
A ledge 3 inches wide across the back of the
opening at the level of the front wall furnished a
rest for the end of the poker and tongs when out
of use.
The whole construction resembled a funnel-
shaped mediaeval spout-head fastened against the
wall of a house with a gutter leading down to it
from a corner of the roof.
The usual buff-coloured interior lining of terra-
cotta, which preserved the shape, gave evidence
of the employment of intense heat.
Stepping Stones, — Leading northwards directly
for the main Via a row of stepping stones, i foot 4
inches to i foot 9 inches wide, was traced for a
distance of 1 6 feet, commencing at a large slab (2 feet
Site at Wilderspool during 1905 35
2 inches by i foot 9 inches by 6 inches) placed
upon the edge of the pit evidently in position for
the labourer to stand upon when discharging his
burden of fuel or ore, which he probably carried in
a basket upon his head. A branch line of similar
stones struck off at right angles to the former at 6
feet from the pit. The fragments of an ornamented
terra sigillata (Samian) bowl, form 37 (since restored
and nearly complete), were collected on either side
at the level of the base of the stones, a depth of
about I foot 3 inches below the grass, the style of
decoration and figured types indicating that the
vessel was made at Lezoux in the second century
by Cinnamus or Paternus, who were the principal
exporters of that class of ware during the Antonine
Period (a.d. 140-190). Here we have a modified
example of the style of metopes, with figures occu-
pying the whole width of the ornamented zone,
separated by beaded fillets or spirally fluted columns
supporting fantastic fantail foliage, four of the subor-
dinate figures being framed in semicircular festoons
of cable pattern. The figured types as numbered
and described in Dechelette's list,^ are : —
52 (variant). — Apollo nude, seated, his right
hand raised to the top of his head, and left hand
supporting the lyre which rests on his right knee.
146 (variant). — Perseus holding up the head of
Medusa; a sword in his right hand and his left
foot planted in advance.
220. — Female dancer, nude, holding a scarf.
338. — Man, nude, standing, his right hand ex-
tended ; holding a pedum or similar object in his
left.
523. — Man, bearded, standing, enveloped in a
mantle which leaves his shoulders bare.
Figures of subordinate character are a diminutive

outstretched (new). 934. — Dog running to left.
954. — Hare or rabbit at rest. 1052. — Dolphin to

The objects derived from the hole in front of the
furnace are the following : —
Coin, — Base denarius of Marcus Aurelius (a.d.
1 61-180), 2 feet below ground level (thus confirm-
ing the date assigned to the ornamental bowl).
Though partly corroded the impression is quite
fresh, and is unworn. Mr. C. H. Read, who
identified it, suggests it to be a contemporary
forgery.
Bronze, — Ornamental nail-head or stud, \^
inch square, cast hollow with a double torus
moulding. (Plate I. Fig 9.)
Tweezers (broken).
Iron. — More than five dozen nails of uniform
size, 2 to 3 inches in length, unbent, and some well
preserved by being embedded in clay.
Rake-head (above mentioned) ?
Glass. — Fragment of greenish-blue square bottle,
and one of flat window glass, dull on one side.
Pottery. — In addition to two or three of terra
sigillata (Samian) and several of black and red
earthenware, there were two necks of one-handled
ampullae of the ordinary type (globular bodied of
pale buff unglazed paste).
Miscellaneous.— T\i^ surrounding soil was ash-
blackened, and contained lumps of unspent charcoal
and one small bit of ordinary mineral coal. Small
cubes of similar coal were found at a depth of 2 feet
6 inches near to the second-century Samian bowl,
but at I foot 3 inches greater depth. A lump of
black glossy iron slag or cinder and cusps of teeth
of horse and ox were also met with in uncovering
the furnace.
The above list of objects, though not varied, is
Stic at Wilderspool during 1905 2>1
of sufficient significance to indicate unmistakably
the purpose for which the furnace was employed,
viz. iron-forging, and especially the manufacture of
iron nails.
The few finds of which the particular locality is
not recorded are : —
Bronze. — Hook (for retaining the handle of a
situla'i\ with fastening-plate {\\ inch \yj \ inch).
(Plate I. Fig. 10.)
Sheave of pulley for a window cord (?), length 2
inches, consisting of a double plate joined by a pin
for the roller, and having a pierced fastening-plate
at one end and a moulded ornamental knob at the
other. (Plate I. Fig. 4.)
Iron, — Key with handle pierced for suspension,
2f inches in length, the web, \ inch in length, bent
at a right angle.
Lead. — Loom-weight, 2 inches high, of square
section with chamfered edges, tapering from ^
inch across the base to \ inch across the top. The
loop for its suspension originally provided at the
summit has been broken across.
Glass. — Amorphous lump of common greenish-
tinted waste material with tool marks and folded.
Piece of flat bluish-green bottle (?) to which a
small bit of white unfused quartz adheres — probably
a portion of a ** waster " rejected on account of the
flaw.
Miscellaneous. — Six handstones (pestles, sleekers,
or rammers ?) for grinding in a mortar or smoothing
or **pumming" clay moulds, resembling a number
of others previously recorded and deposited in
the Warrington Museum along with the other
finds.
Hollow flint nodule of roughly ovoid shape, 2f
inches in length by if inch in diameter, chipped
off evenly at both ends of the hole to form
a kind of bead or amulet for hanging round the

neck on a string. This holed-stone was evidently
regarded as a curio or charm, and, being a very
rough one, was probably regarded with supersti-
tious reverence rather than for .its intrinsic beauty
or worth.

42 Some Further Notes on Standish
manner that on the death of one chaplain, another
shall be appointed to do the aforesaid duties, and
thus in succession, when and as often as any chaplain
deputed to the said Chantry shall die or chance to
vacate the same," He then proceeds to state that
he will in his lifetime choose the chaplain, and that
after his death Richard le Waleys and his heirs are
to have the presentation, on condition that, within a
month of the Chantry becoming void, the vacancy
shall be filled and its lands and tenements handed
over to the new chaplain. Should .they fail to
collate, then ** John de Standissh " patron of Stan-
dish Church and his heirs shall have the right
to present, but they are only given fifteen days
in which to find the requisite priest ; the Prior of
Burscough and his successors are to have the pre-
sentation if the Standishes fail to appoint. The
collators are enjoined to find **in the spirit of
charity" a suitable and good chaplain, and to
take nothing from him they may so appoint ; so
that he may with happy issues perform the above
recited offices for the Chantry.
For the support and maintenance of the chaplain
and his successors, Hehry le Waleys gives two
messuages and sixty acres of land with appurten-
ances in *' Standissh and Longetre " in free,
pure, and perpetual alms, quit and absolved from
all services for ever. He seals with a man's
head turned to the right, surrounded by Gothic
tracery ; issuing from his lips are two quatrefoils.
The legend appears to read, VQIL- 01 • (0 DQ •
FLOVR: DQ: LAMOVR- {Standish Deeds,
No. 38).
The licence to alienate the above messuages and
lands in mortmain, for the 'support of the Chantry,
was granted by letters patent dated at York, 12th
February, 2 Edward HI. (1327-8) to Henry, son
of John le Waleys, chaplain, for which he paid forty
Church and its Chantries 43
shillings (ibid.^ No. 37, and Cal. Pat. Ro.y 1327, 30,
p. 236).
Amongst the Standish deeds are two which pro-
bably refer to Henry le Waleys's acquisition of the
land with which he endowed his Chantry, viz. in
July 131 5, William, son of William Smith (Fabre),
released to ** Henry le Walsh," rector of the Church
of Standish, all these lands, &c., in ** Standissh and
Longetre " which he had of " William my father,"
and in December 13 16, Hugh de Standish released
to '* Henry, son of John le Waleys' chaplain " these
lands and buildings to the west of Cimberbrok in the
same vills, which had been the heritage of William
Smith (Standish Deeds, Nos. 27 and 29).
In November 1332, Henry le Waleys, rector of
Standish Church, further enriches the Chantry by
delivering to Master Simon, son of Thomas le
Waleys, chaplain, six oxen and four cows, worth a
hundred shillings, as an increased provision to him
and his successors, the chaplains of the Chantry
of Blessed Mary the Virgin in Standish Church.
Whereupon the said Simon swears, with his hand
upon the Holy Gospels, that, on his death, he will
deliver the same number of animals or their value
to the chaplains, his successors, so that they may be
passed on to the use of each successive priest who
shall be in possession of the said vicarage ; the
successors are also to be bound by oath to pass on
the cattle or their value. Simon undertakes for
himself and his successors that every day after the
death of the said Sir Henry, his memory shall be
honoured in the celebration of the Mass, and in
alms to the poor. The seal Henry le Waleys uses
is the same as the former one {ibid.y No. 45).
By March 1337-8 it is probable Richard le
Waleys was dead, for at this date John de Standish
and his heirs, the patrons of Standish Church, are
appointed patrons of the Chantry by Henry le
44 Some Further Notes on Standish
Waleys to the exclusion of Richard, and they
are bound by the same provisions for avoiding
the Chantry being left without a priest. William
de Worthington, Thomas de Longetre, William
de Anderton, William del Burgh, John and Roger
de Chesenhale, and Henry de I nee being witnesses
{ibid., No. 55).
In 1368 the Chantry priest appears to have been
Adam de Kecwyk, for by an indenture in French,
dated at Standish Friday after the Invention of
the Cross (May 3), 41 Edw. III.,* it is recited that
Adam de Kecwyk, chaplain, was bound to ** Henry
de Standissh,'* patron of Standish Church, in ;^2o,
to observe the following covenants : namely, that
he shall follow the counsel of the said Henry as to
his rights, debts, and arrears, **en chekune place
par voy de les person costage ressounablement
ordayne de les propres detts et asserages ou de
son salary alowe par le det Henr en son consayl
ordayn." Henry also decrees that the debts which
can be legally recovered shall be put into the hands
of two loyal men, to the profit of the said Adam and
his successors (ibid., No. 89).
The 28th September 1394 (18 Ric. II.) Henry de
Standish, patron of Standish Church, presented
Thomas del Lee, chaplain at the Chantry, to
celebrate before the Altar of Blessed Mary the
Virgin, for the soul of Henry le Walsch, once
rector of Standish, and all his benefactors, &c., and
to hold the same for life. He further granted that
Thomas shall hold the annuity of three marks in
the parish of Standish, in aid of the said Chantry,
and if the three marks are not paid within the
parish, Thomas has licence to obtain the support
elsewhere. The chaplain, on his part, agrees that
all the grain grown by him, or in his name, on the
piece of ground called *'the Rydyng" shall be
ground at Henry's water-mill in Standish {ibid..^ No.
Church and its Chantries 45
III). This is probably the deed dated by Dr.
West as 12 Ric. II., and so copied by Mr. Earwaker
in his ** Standish Charters/* No. Ixxviij.
By a deed dated at ** Walsh Wittell," i8th
November, 7 Henry vij. (1491), Sir Alexander
Standish, Knt., reciting that Nicholas Bibby, chap-
lain, had lately enfeoffed him, along with Ralph
Standish, his son, Thomas Radclif, clerk, Laurence
Shotel worth, Henry Crichlaw, chaplains, Hugh
Bretherton, Ralph Wodeward, and Roger Brimson
of certain messuages and lands in ** Walsch Withull "
CO. Lancaster, to hold as an addition and aid, for
ever, to the Chantry belonging to the Altar of the
Blessed Mary the Virgin in Standish Church, and
that Sir Alexander and his heirs should, for ever,
have the ** aid and grant of the said messuages," &c.,
** as often as the service of the Chapel happens to be
vacant," now demises the same to Nicholas Bibby,
to hold for life to celebrate Divine service at the
said Altar for the soul of Roger Standish, formerly
rector of the said Church, and for the souls of the
patrons and patronesses of the church, and for all
the faithful deceased, every day of his life, and to
find thirteen wax candles to be renewed yearly
before the Altar of St. Wilfrid in Standish Church
{ibid.. No. 187).
It is probable that this endowment was a Stan-
dish one, and Nicholas Bibby merely acted as
trustee, when he enfeoffed Sir Alexander &c. in
the property. In August, 1478, Peter Standish
^of Esley) appointed John Standish to deliver seisin
of the messuages and lands in ** Walshe Whitell"
to Nicholas Bibby and John Greenhall, chaplains,
of which he had enfeoffed them {ibid,, No. 167).
With regard to the Chantry of St. Nicholas,
the Standish deeds also afford some information.
By an indenture, dated ist August, 19 Edw. iv.
(1479), it is recited that ** Master Alexander Fair-
46 Some Further Notes on Standish
clogh, parson of Standissh Church," having en-
feoffed ** Alexander Standissh, Esq., Rauf Standissh
his son and heir apparent, Laurence Fairclogh,
Esq., and Rauf his son and heir, Robert Chernok,
Laurence Longtre Esq'., Thomas Dokesbury,
Henry Shotilworth of Hackyng, Edward Fair-
clogh, Hugh Dokesbury, Richard Fairclogh,
Geoffrew Fairclogh, Edmund Farynton clerks,
Nicholas Bibby and John Grenehalgh preestes"
of all his messuages and lands, &c., in the county
of Lancaster, under condition, that if required, they
should re-enfeoff him or "to whom hit plesez him,'*
of all the said messuages &c. for his life. If no
re-enfeoffment was made, then Master Alexander
desired that **al ye yssues fermes and profits yat
shall groo and come of ye saides messuages, landes
and tenements and of every parcell of yem of clere
over ye annual charges of yaim shalbe taken to
ye fyndyng of a Chauntre perpetuall for a conable
(suitable) prest to say masse daile at ye g.uter in ye
Chapell of Saynt Nicholus in ye paroche chirche
of Standissh for ye saules of ye saide Maistre
Alex'., Maister Thomas Fairclogh his brother, and
for ye saules of his fader and modir, brethe and
sister, and for al criston saules, and for ye saules
of ye patrone and patrones of ye said Chirche."
Alexander Fairclogh further stipulates, that if at
any future time this number of feoffees living be
reduced to four, they are at once to re-enfeoff the
property to one or two persons in fee simple, that
they may immediately make an estate to re-enfeoff
fresh trustees of an equal number as now, namely,
fifteen, and the feoffees are, if possible, to be chosen
from amongst the heirs of himself and of Alexander
Standish. Standish and his heirs were to have the
presentation **and admission of ye said Chauntre
and preests for evermore and as oft tymes hit falles
void so yat ye saide Alexander Standissh and his
Church and its Chantries 47
heires present and admitte a preest to ye said
Chauntre within xl days after hit happen to fall
void." Should the Standishes fail to collate, the
Fairclogh heirs were to have the nomination, and,
failing them, the bishop of Coventry and Lich-
field {ibid.. No. 173).
In 1502, the number of trustees falling to four,
the 4th September, 18 Hen. vij., Sir Alexander
Standish Kn^, Ralph his son and heir, Ralph
Fairclogh, and Henry Shotilworth of Hacking,
enfeoff Thurstan Standish of **Gaytehurst" and
Ralph Wodeward gents of all those lands &c.,
of which Master Alexander Fairclogh, once rector
of Standish Church, had enfeoffed them, with
others (since dead), by his deed of ist August, 19
Edw. iv. {ibid., No. 192). The deed for re-enfeoff-
ment is not now forthcoming.
These are the only Standish deeds now existing
relating to the Chantries in Standish Church, and
there are none in which that of the Holy Rood
is mentioned, though, in the Inq. p.m. of Ralph
Standish, Esq., taken at Wigan 9th June, 31 Henry
viij. (1539), he was found to have died seised of
the advowson of Standish Church, and of the
advowson of the three chantries, or nominations
to the three, in Standish Church {ibid., No. 226).
From Mr. Standish's charters we are able to
supply the surname of the second rector on Mr.
Price's list; for in 1289, ** Jordan de Stanect" de-
mised for twenty years to Matilda, the mother of Sir
Robert de Haydok ** rector of Staned" church, and
to Nicholas ** Hugonis," her husband, some land in
Standish, near ** le wall " of the church {ibid.. No. 5).
The first mention of the advowson occurring in
these charters, is in November 1318 (12 Edw. ij.),
when Henry, son of John le Waleys, clerk, demises
to William, son of Jordan de Standish, for life, the
mediety of the manors of Standish and Longtree
along with the advowson of Standish Church. On
48 Some Further Notes on Standisk
the death of William, the same was to pass to his
son, John de Standish, and his heirs, and in failure,
to the right heirs of the said William. The wit-
nesses to this indenture are Richard le Waleys,
Adam de Chernok, William de Worthinton, John
de Croppul, Thoms de Longetre, Richard del Holt,
and Hugh the clerk (ibid., No. 31). Mr. Earwaker
gives this in his " Standish Charters," No. xv., but
has printed Le Waleys's name as **Sewaley."
Gilbert de Standish first appears in the family
deeds, as parson of Standish the 17th February, 32
Edw. iij. (1357-8), and in 1364, seals with a good
armorial seal, bearing on a shield the arms — a
saltire within a bordure ingrailed. There is nice
tracery work around the shield, and the legend
reads, "Sigill : Dni : Gilb : de : Stand : " He
was a witness the 24th February, 20 Ric. ij. (1396-7)
{ibid,, Nos. 71, 84-113).
Alexander de Standish, ** parson of Standish
Church," appears as trustee in several feoffments
from 1406 {ibid.y No. 1 19), but was dead before the
nth July 1428, when Laurence Standish, Esq.,
was his executor {Cat, Pat, Ro,, 1422-29, p. 444).
The lease from ** Master Thomas Radclyfif, clerk,"
parson of Standish, quoted by Mr. Price, is dated
the 15th May, 21 Henry vij. (1506), and recites
that he demises to ** Rauff Standyssh of Standyssh,"
son and heir of Sir Alexander Standish, Knt, **all
that hys church and parsonage of Standyssh afore-
said with all manner of Glebe lands, meadows, lesez,
and pastures, and all tythes, oblercons, frutes, como-
dytes, and emoluments to the same belonging"
(woods and underwoods excepted) to hold from the
feast of St. Mark the Evangelist now last past ** for
oon hole yere complet " ; paying for the same, for
the year, to John Abbot of Westminster or his
successors, for the use and behofe of the same
Master Thomas Radclyffe, fifty-pounds. Rauff and
his executors and assigns are bound ** at his proper
Church and its Chantries 49
costes and charges to fynd an able prest of good
honest convercacon and of good lerninge to synge
and saye dyvine service within the sede Churche of
Standissh, and to mynystre the Sacraments and
Sacramentals to the paryshens ther at all tymes
necessarye and requysyte during the said hole yere."
Mr. Standish was also to pay all ecclesiastical
charges and subsidies, chargeable upon the rectory
and church, and to repair **al buildyngs that now
ys standyng and repayre the Chauncell of the said
Church during the hole yere as nede shall require,
at his costs and charges, except yf any fall downe
contrary to his wyll or mynde." He is to have
haybote and housebote from the rectory woods for
such **reparacon and hegynge" as he shall do to
the parsonage, but it is to be delivered to him by
such person or persons as Richard, bishop of Win-
chester, shall appoint {Standish Deeds ^ No. 193).
The 1 2th June, 7 Henry viij. (1576), Thomas Rat-
clyff gives another lease of the rectory, this time
for twenty-one years, to " Robert Standyssh, chap-
lain, and Ralph Standissh, Esq.," the same provi-
sions as to the spiritual supply, &c., being made
{ibid., No. 199). This lease was wrongly dated by
Dr. West in his ** Abstracts," and consequently by
Mr. Earwaker in No. ccxxxiij. On the **xvij'^ day
of the moneth of Septembr, a.d. 1535, I Rauff
Standissh, Squier, beyng in perfite and gude mynde
and remembraunce, make my testament in maner
and forme as folio weth." After leaving his soul to
God, &c., and desiring that his ** body shalbe
buried in Standissh Church yarde in such place
ther as I shall appoynt hereafter," he continues,
•* And I giff and bewheth to the new makyng of
the said Church xl'*" {idid.y No. 221). This will, I
take to be identical with the one which Dr. West
dates as the i8th October, 26 Henry viij. (1534),
as the rest of the bequests are the same.

50 Some Further Notes on Standish
The twenty-one years lease of 1 506 having ex-
pired, ** Peter Bradshagh, clerk, parson of the
paroch church of Standissh," on the 28th April, 30
Henry viij. (1538), demises to ** Alexander Stan-
dissh, sqer., and Sir William Bymson, chaplain,''
the church, benefice, and parsonage of Standish,
with all glebe lands, fruits, offerings, &c., belonging
to the same, to hold from the feast of St. Martin in
winter next to come, until the same feast in 1539,
paying £^^ for the term. Standish and Bimson
agree with Peter, that he shall have and enjoy
during the year at his pleasure, ** the stockhay with
the wood adjoining to the same ; the beire croft
and one acre of medow in the Berne medow, with
all the holle Edeish of the said Berne medow,
parcel of the said glebe lands," for which the rector
was to pay them Ixix^. viij^. Alexander and
William on their part covenant to keep **all the
housyngs and byldeyngs belongynge to the fore-
said benefice and parsonage," as they ** fynde them
the day of thair entre ther at the sight of iiij en-
defferent persons chosen." They also agree that
the Reverend Peter "shall have conveniente meite
and drynke and lodgeyng for hym and his two ser-
vaunts and thair horsez at all tymes during the forsaid
terme when he shall cume unto his said parsonage
and benefice" ; and they are also **to kepe hospitalite
in the said parsonage duryng thesaid terme in the
hous of God and to releve the pore people." This
lease is signed by ** Petrii Bradshagh, Rectore ecctie
de Standyssh et Eccliston" {ibid.^ No. 223).
One cannot sufficiently regret that Dr. Wests
** Abstracts" should have been so meagre, and
one fears not always correct, as a good many of
the Standish charters which he saw in 1771 have
now disappeared. The inaccuracy is doubly to be
deplored, as Mr. Earwaker, in printing his ** Stan-
dish Charters" from that MS., hcCs unwittingly
perpetuated the errors,

ADDENDUM
While the foregoing paper was being printed Mr. Henry Brierley of Wigan
kindly forwarded to the Hon. Secretary a copy of an interesting document
bearing on the history of Standish Church. This is here printed by the kind
permission of the Rector of Standish. The transcript has been made with
much care and exactness by Miss Fanny Wrigley, whose painstaking work is
well known to all the members of the Lancashire Parish Register Society.

THE HERALDRY OF ORMSKIRK
CHURCH
By James BromUy, J. P.
Read I5ih February 1906.
HERALDRY has been styled "the shorthand
of History," and though the phrase is to
some extent true, it could more pertinently be
called the shorthand of genealogy.
The heraldry of this church illustrates both
truisms, for not only would it be impossible to
identify most of its monuments without the heraldic
charges, but from these can be gathered many
historical facts hitherto unknown concerning both
the monuments and the church.
I'Vom a comparison of these charges, and the
particular adjuncts of different coats of arms, the
approximate date of the dedication of the Derby
Chapel can be fixed, and from them it is demon-
strable that some of the monuments have been
moved from their own piirticular chapel to another
with which they have little relation, that the effigfies
have got ludicrously mixed up — a great-gnmdmother
having been allotted as wife to her great-grandson
— and that not only can the identity of nearly all
the monuments of the church be clearly established,
but also the relationship of many of the different
[People commemorated to each other, all of which
demonstrates the special antiquarian Importance of
henildic study.
There are, or were, in this church, I think, three
64
The Heraldry of Ormskirk Church 65
examples of bogus heraldry, that is, arms for which
no grants have been made, designed by unautho-
rised and sometimes ignorant persons, and about
as many instances which raise interesting questions
respecting the right of particular persons to display
undoubtedly authentic heraldry belonging to other,
though it may be allied, families, and at least one
of these is particularly curious.
Though the salient genealogical dates are given
from the monuments, it is not requisite to weary
the reader with the fulsome eulogy of eighteenth-
century epitaphs, for, like Lord Byron, it is not
every one who ** believes a woman or an epitaph."
The principal purpose of this paper is the eluci-
dation of a drawing of the monuments of Ormskirk
Church as they existed in 1664 during the Visita-
tion of this county by Sir William Dugdale, Norroy
King of Arms ; but before dealing with this, which
is confined to some now in the two chapels, it seems
first desirable to describe the armorials that are out-
side those localities.
On the north wall of the tower is an oval monu-
ment to the memory of Henry Brooke of Astley
Hall, Chorley, husband of Jane Brooke, donor of the
old organ and ;^300, as an endowment for its
upkeep, in 1731.
This monument is on a slab of blue slate, fast
pulverising, which renders the charges a little
dubious, though the colour and gilding are still
bright. It is an impalement of Brooke: "Or, a
cross engrailed per pale Gules and Sable " with the
2nd sign of cadency, and " Or, a double-headed
eagle displayed Sable" (?), for Temple or Browne.
Crest, *'A brock passant proper." Henry Brooke
died September 17 18, aged forty-five. A similar
heraldic display formerly adorned the front of the
old organ.
On the west side of the south window of the
E
66 The Heraldry of Ormskirk Church
tower is the marble monument of Christopher
Sudell, A.M., Chaplain to James, Earl of Derby,
Rector of North Meols and of Holy Trinity,
Chester, and Prebendary of the Cathedral there.
From this nearly all the colour has flown, but
enough remains to identify it by. "Azure a cross
(quarterly pierced Or) between four bezants, in
honour point the 2nd sign of cadency." Crest, '* A
long cross. Or, the top encompassed with a wreath
of laurel proper." Granted 1685. Christopher
Sudell died August 3, 1735, aged sixty-two.
On the opposite side of this window is the marble
monument of Charles Stanley of Cross Hall, Orms-
kirk, and Jane Sudell, his wife, daughter of the
above Christopher Sudell : " Argent, on a bend
Azure three bucks* heads cabossed Or," for Stanley,
with an escutcheon of pretence for his mother,
Elizabeth Parker, of the Isle of Man, '* Argent,
a chevron Azure gutt^e-de-sang, on a canton Gules
an eagle's head erased Or " (?), with the Stanley
crest, ** On a chapeau Gules turned up Ermine an
eagle, wings endorsed, Or, feeding on an infant
in its nest, proper, swaddled, Azure, banded of the
third." Charles Stanley died 19th of April 1754,
aged thirty-nine, and Jane, his wife, 12th of Decem-
ber 1755, aged fifty.
On the east wall of the tower is a hatchment,
a very conspicuous example of bogus heraldry.
The whole ground of the hatchment and the field
is Vert, and if the charges mean anything under
the sun, it is possibly intended for an impalement
of Pye with Glashan : '* Vert, three fleurs-de-lys
stalked and slipped Argent" (Or), for Pye, and
** Vert, (Argent) a chevron Azure between three
dirks Argent " (Azure, those in chief pointing down-
wards), for Glashan, but on this coat all the dirks
point downwards, and, what is peculiarly fitting, on
the apex of the chevron is ** a fool's cap Or." Crest,
The Heraldry of Ormskirk Church 67
**A bird close Argent." Motto, "Dea me judex,"
with an Esquire s helmet, and floral mantling.
In the south aisle is a brass, very interesting in
many ways, especially to Liverpool people. Over
a Latin inscription is an impalement, with floral
mantling, "Argent, on a bend engrailed Sable
three mullets of the field," for John Entwistle of
Foxholes, Rochdale, obit 5th May 17 10, and
"Argent, on a bend engrailed Sable, three fleurs-
de-Iys of the field," for Dorothy Holt of Stubley,
his wife, obit 30th September 1702..

Differences of opinion have arisen as to whether
"the feast day of the holy Archangel Michael"
referred to the then common belief in the fixture
of the Resurrection Day, or to the time of Dorothy
Entwistle's death, but I found from the Register
that " migravit " refers to the latter.
This John Entwistle built a stone house in
Aughton Street, Ormskirk, now the Brewers' Arms
beerhouse, in which both he and his wife lived for
many years and died, and were both buried inter-
murally at Ormskirk Church. In the gable is a
carved panel with the date 1661, their initials, and
the motto "Vivere in excelsis melius," which may be
translated " To live in Heaven is better." Colonel
* See plate No. i.
68 The Heraldry of Ormskirk Church
Fishwick informed me that this John Entwistle
was the only inheritor of the Foxholes estate who
permanently lived away from it, which may be
accounted for by his position as Sessional Clerk, the
Sessions for the West Derby Hundred being then
held only at Ormskirk and Wigan. He entered
his pedigree at the Visitation of Sir William
Dugdale, at Ormskirk, on April 8, 1665, ^^^ '^^
was for nearly fifty years Town Clerk and Recordei-
of Liverpool, at a salary of ;^525 per annum. On
August 17, 1709, he sent in his resignation, dated
from Ormskirk, wherein he suggests that **if you
pitch on one of my family, it will be a great satis-
faction to me." The Corporation took this gentle
hint and elected as his successor his son Bertin, so
called from a reputed ancestor of that name who was
with Henry V. in France. There are many refer-
ences to these Entwistles in the Liverpool Records.
On the south wall of the chancel, in a very
obscure light, is a monument to the Reverend
Archippus Kippax, Vicar of Ormskirk and Arch-
deacon of Man, whose name appears on one of the
recast bells of the church, dated 17 14. He died
May 6, 1718, aged fifty-nine. On this monument
is a coat of arms, seemingly ** Argent, on a chevron
Azure, between three holly branches fructed proper,
as many wood-pigeons of the first, beaked and
membered, Gules " (?), with a crest, " A badger
passant proper " (?). There is no record of a grant
of arms to the Kippax family, and these arms, if
correctly deciphered, are those of Hollis of Rother-
ham, as is also the crest. Whether this Vicar was
connected with the Hollis family I cannot find, but
he had no right to display their arms.
On a monument in the south aisle, to Anne,
relict of John Hawarden Fazakerley, Esq., obit
1800, is the crest of this family: **On a mount
Vert, a swan, wings displayed Argent." This par-
The Heraldry of Ormskirk Church 69
ticular branch of the Fazakerley family long resided
at Ormskirk, and there are other, but not armorial,
monuments to its members in the church. 1
During a previous survey of the monuments of
this church, some years since, I noted some armo-
rials that are not there now.
In a stained glass window, an impalement —
Stanley (as before), and Maitland, Earl of Lauder-
dale : ** Or, a lion rampant dechauss^, within a
double tressure,florycounterflory Gules," for Edward
Stanley of Cross Hall, and Mary, eldest daughter
of James Maitland, Earl of Lauderdale. Edward
Stanley contested the Southern Division of Lan-
caster unsuccessfully in 1837, and died about i860.
In a stained glass window in the north aisle was
formerly a coat of arms : " Argent, a chevron Sable,
in chief a lion passant guardant Or." Crest, on a
wreath of the colours, " A nag's head, couped proper,
caparisoned Or," intended for Welsby, but I cannot
trace any arms for this family.
The Chapels
On the survey above alluded to I found, leaning
against a wall in the Derby Chapel, a most inter-
esting heraldic display. A hatchment ; for Sir
Edward Smith Stanley, 6th Baronet, and 12th
Earl of Derby, impaling Elizabeth, daughter of
James, 6th Duke of Hamilton, and 3rd Duke of
Brandon, his first wife, and Eliza Farren, the
Liverpool actress, his second wife. In the centre
Stanley, Quarterly i and 4 Stanley (as before)
2 and 3, grand quarters, i and 4. ** Azure, three
hedgehogs. Argent," for Herriz, and 2 and 3,
"Gules, on a chevron Or, between three bezants,
as many crosses patt6e fitch^. Sable," for Smith.
On a canton Azure, the Ulster badge, the bloody
hand, for the Baronetcy, and on an escutcheon of
70 The Heraldry of Orms&irk Church
pretence, in the honour point, ** Gules, three cinque-
foils Argent," for Hamilton. The dexter impale-
ment was : Quarterly, four grand-quarters, ist and
4th "Gules, three cinquefoils pierced Ermine,"
for Hamilton. 2nd and 3rd ** Argent, a ship with
her sails furled. Sable," for Arran. 2nd and 3rd
Quarterly, ist ''Azure, a lion rampant Argent,
crowned. Or," for Galloway ; 2nd " Or, a lion
rampant Gules, debruised by a bendlet Sable,"
for Abernethy ; 3rd '* Argent, three piles Gules,"
for Wishart; 4th '*Or, a fess chequy Azure and
Argent surniounted by a bend Gules charged with
three buckles of the first," for Stewart ; over all,
on an escutcheon, " Argent, a human heart Gules,
imperially crowned proper ; on a chief Azure, three
mullets of the field," for Douglas ; in the honour
point, on ' a small escutcheon brochant'Sur-tout^
** Azure, three fleurs-de-lys Or," for Chatelherault,
all these quarterings for Hamilton. The sinister
impalement was: ''Argent, a fess between three
horse-shoes Azure," for Farren. The shield was en-
signed with an earl's coronet, and on a wreath of the
colours the Stanley crest (as before). Supporters,
" Dexter, a griffin, sinister, a buck, both Or, and
ducally collared and chained Azure, the buck attired
of the last." Motto, " Sans changer." The im-
palement for Farren is very puzzling, as the proper
coat of this Irish family is, "Gules, a saltire Or,"
and the exact blazon belongs to no known coat of
arms, but, except in the tinctures of the horse-
shoes, it is the same as that of Endesor, of RoUesby,
Co. Norfolk, " Argent, a fess Azure, between three
horse-shoes Sable."
The background of this hatchment was entirely
black, indicating that all three were dead — Eliza-
beth Hamilton, died 14th March 1797; Eliza
Farren, 23rd April 1829; and Edward Smith
Stanley, the celebrated cock-fighter, 21st October
The Heraldry of Ormskirk Church 7 1
1834. This showed, he being the last survivor,
that the hatchment was put up after his death, and
in my own recollection it formerly hung on the
south wall of the Derby Chapel until the *' restora-
tion " of the church. It is a great pity that such an
interesting memorial of a former Liverpool actress
should have been, as I am told it is, destroyed.
It will be seen from this description that the
hatchment was remarkable in at least two points —
the Farren charges, and the escutcheon of pretence
for Hamilton, which indicated that the Earl claimed
some honours through his first wife, though he had
been divorced from her. From this wife comes the
present Earl of Derby, and the only surviving
daughter of Eliza Farren married Thomas, 2nd
Earl of Wilton.
In the two existing chapels are some heraldic
memorials that are not depicted on the drawing
of Sir William Dugdale, though a few of these
must have been in situ at the time it was made,
and there are some more recently added, so it is
perhaps more orderly to describe these before deal-
ing with those on the drawing.
On the east wall of the Derby Chapel is a marble
monument, Stanley (as before) impaling Warren,
**Chequy, Or and Azure" (without the usual can-
ton with a lion), floral mantling, Esquire's helmet.
Crest, on a wreath of the colours, the Stanley
crest (as before), for Alice Warren of Poynton,
wife of the Hon. and Rev. John Stanley, who was
successively Rector of Liverpool, Bury, Walton-on-
the-Hill, and Win wick, where he died, aged ninety-
one, in 1 78 1. The inscription on this monument
is remarkable for preserving an archaic style of
nomenclature, of which a few examples can be
found in the early Liverpool Directories. This
lady was the daughter of Edward Warren of
Poynton, by his second wife Margaret, daughter
72 The Heraldry of Ormskirk Church
of **Thc Hon. William Spencer, Esqr.," and wife
of **Thc Hon. and Rev. John Stanley, Esqr."
She died in 1737, aged thirty-nine.
(Jf the four corbels which carry the roof of the
Scarisbrick Chapel, one on each wall bears ''a
cross," probably meant as the common sig^ of
Christianity, as the simple charge belongs to none
of the Scarisbrick family alliances. One on the
south wall h.is the Scarisbrick crest, "A dove.
Sable, Ijcaked and legged Gules, holding in the
beak an olive branch proper," whilst one on the
north wall has seemingly ** A demi-lion rampant,
crowned, holding a cross-crosslet in its dexter
jiiiw '* (?). All these are high up and difficult
to decipher, but probably the last is meant for "A
demifo.x gnisning a cross-crosslet fitchte Azure,"
the crest of Wrightington of Wrightington, from
which estate the later Scarisbrick family came.
()n the west wall 6f this chapel is a hatch-
ment, Scarisbrick impeding flTarington, for Thomas

The carved memorial tablet, under this, bears
an impalement of Scarisbrick (as before) and
Messenger, ''Argent, a chevron engrailed between
three close helmets Sable," on a Chippendale
escutcheon, and was erected by Anna Messenger
to her husband, Robert Scarisbrick, who died, aged
sixty-eight, nth March 1737.
The two stained glass windows in the south wall
of this chapel are commemorative of its ''restora-
tion" by Pugin in 1866, when they were dedicated
to the memory of her father and mother by the
Lady Anne Scarisbrick, widow of Sir T. W.
Hunloke, Bart., of Wingerworth Hall, Co. Derby,
who adopted the name of Scarisbrick on her acces-
sion to the estates. The heraldic charges in the
upper lights of these windows show the successive
changes in the nomenclature of her family and some
of their alliances. The arms in both windows are
alike, but in the east window the escutcheons are
upright, and in the west window canted, (i) Scaris-
brick (as before). (2) " Or, on a cross between
four hinds' heads, Vert, two cross-crosslets fitch^e,

This coat is usually displayed. Quarterly i and 4
Dicconson, 2 and 3 Wrightington, and the cross-
crosslets are evidently taken from the latter. (3) An
impalement, Quarterly i and 4 Eccleston, " Argent,
a cross Sable, in dexter chief a fleur-de-lys Gules,"
2 Scarisbrick (as before), 3 Dicconson (as before),
impaling "Sable, on a bend Argent three mullets.
Gules," for Clifton of Lytham. (4) Eccleston (as
74 The Heraldry of Ormskirk Church
before). It is singular that there are no ensigns
for Sir T. W. Hunloke, the husband of Lady
Scarisbrick, as it was through that marriage she
attained the title of Lady.
The armorials of these windows are artistically
treated, and the tinctures are mostly only sugges-
tive of heraldic colour, whilst the " mullets " of the
Clifton impalement are scarcely recognisable as
such, and very different from the clear cut ones
of the Scarisbrick coat.
On the crown of the arches of the King s Chancel,
that is, the crossing between the transept chapels
of Scarisbrick and Bickerstaffe, and so called be-
cause Henry VH. is said to have worshipped
there during his month's visit to his stepfather,

badges. North wall, *'The Portcullis, crowned,"
and **The fleur-de-lys." South wall, "The Lan-
caster Rose, crowned," and **A lion rampant,
qrowned," though the latter may be intended for
the more distinctively Tudor badge, **The Red
Dragon of Wales." This is the more likely, as
they would then be exactly the same as those on
the great bell of 1497, ^^w in the belfry, but
the insignia are too high up to make identification
certain.
The Dugdale Drawing
The original of this unpublished drawing (plates
2, 3, and 4), is in the Heralds* College, but, through
the kindness of Rouge Croix, I have a reproduction
of it, from which these facsimiles have been made.
Sir William Dugdale, Norroy King of Arms, held
his court at Ormskirk from the 22nd to the 24th of
September, 1664, and this drawing was made in
the church on the 23rd of that month, under his
instructions, by Gregory King, Rouge Dragon
The Heraldry of Ormskirk Church 75
Pursuivant, a famous heraldic draughtsman, and
verified by Dugdale himself, 8th April 1665,
when he re-opened his court at Ormskirk and
completed his visitation.
There are several errors in the identifications and
in the drawings, and some omissions of blazon and
heraldic adjuncts, which surround the monuments
and now assist in their identification, but these will
be noted in their proper place.
The monuments depicted at that time were in
the three sepulchral chapels, which were not then
benched, but, during the Churchwarden period,
possibly for sanitary reasons, some of them were
whitewashed, with the result that, though by this
means the heraldry was preserved, some of the
tinctures were altered, the blue turned green, the
white vanished, and the red dulled ; nevertheless,
on the removal of this condiment there was a
brilliant heraldic display, though the chemical cure
proved worse than the disease, as under its action
very few traces of the tinctures now remain.
The chapels, in which the monuments were, are
not even named on the drawing, the distinction ala
and muro with the points of the compass being
the sole attempt at differentiation.
The Scarisbrick Chapel
It is clear from the wills of Thomas Scarisbrick
(1530) and Gilbert Burscough (of Burscough Hall,
Lathom, 1557), that this was the sepulchral chapel
of the Scarisbrick family, and " Saynt Nicholas
Chauncell, within the Parish Churche of Ormys-
kyrke," and I select from the drawing those
monuments that belong to it.
Plate 3, No. 2. — These arms are, like most
others on the drawing, without some adjuncts that
must always have belonged to them, for it will be
76 The Heraldry of Ormskirk Church
demonstrated that the draughtsman seized only on
the essential heraldry and generally omitted the
surroundings. They are enclosed by a sunk
moulded panel high up in the centre of the south
wall of the chapel, now much weathered, which, like
three others in the Derby Chapel, subsequently
described, are not monumental, but commemorative
of the dedication of the chapels, though unlike these
it carries no personal evidence of its donor, except
that he was a Scarisbrick. It bears ** Gules, three
mullets in bend, between two bendlets engrailed
Argent," on a wreath of the colours the Crest, ** A
dove Sable, beaked and legged Gules, holding in
the beak an olive branch proper," for Scarisbrick,
as shown, with Esquire's helmet and floral mantling,
not shown.
Plate 3, Nos. 4 to 9, and Inscription above, — No
trace of this alabaster tomb or its inscription can
now be found in the church, though in 1664 it
probably stood on the north side of the chapel, as
the one shown below it occupied, as stated, the
south side. It is, as the inscription shows, the
monument of Elizabeth Scarisbrick, obit 12th
December 151 1. (4) ** Azure, a lion rampant
Ermine, crowned Or," for Gerard. (5) Scarisbrick
(as before). (6) An impalement. Dexter (blank) ;
sinister, Scarisbrick. (7) An impalement. Dexter,
** Argent, a cross patonce Sable," for Banastre ;
sinister, Scarisbrick. (8) Scarisbrick. (9) Dexter,
Banastre ; sinister (blank), but none of these coats
carry tincture marks. From the consecutive num-
bers on the monument below a superficial glance
would lead to the supposition that Nos. 4 to 7 were
at the back of it, and Nos. 8 and 9 at the feet, but
it is clear that these belong to the monument of
Elizabeth Scarisbrick, and the australi parte and
the man's figure effectually differentiate the two
monuments.
The Heraldry of Omtskirk Church 77
Plate 3, Nos. 16 to 15. — This pontomb, stated
to be on the south side of the south aisle, must
have been destroyed when the chapel was pewed,
as the fine large brass shown on it was found
on a slab under the floor of the pews, and at the
" restoration " of the chapel was placed on a dark
marble slab on the south wall between the windows,
in a position where, from lack of light, it is impos-
sible to properly appreciate its artistic merit.
The shields of arms under its head carry (10)
Gerard (as No. 4), and (11) Scarisbrick (as
No. 5), and at the side (12) ** Argent, on a bend
Azure, three bucks* heads cabossed Or," for
Stanley. (13) ** Argent, three chevrons Gules,"
for Banastre ancient. (14) Blank. (15) ** Azure,
three bars Argent," for Chaney [?], probably a coat
brought in by Banastre. Those on the other side
and at the feet are not shown, and as the pontomb
is destroyed there is now no record of them. On
the top of this pontomb is shown the brass, now
on the south wall of the chapel, and Mr. Thorneley,
in his book on ** Lancashire Brasses," from the
style of its plate armour and its mail shoes,
dates the fashioning circa 1500. It bears no im-
palement or other distinctive mark of personality,
and we merely know certainly that it represents a
Scarisbrick ; and, even when Dugdale saw it, the
inscription and the sword hilt had been torn off.
It bears some resemblance to the brass of Piers
Gerard in Winwick Church, which is dated 1485,
but the armour is simpler, indicating an earlier
date. There is even now a project to erect a
monument in this church to James, 7th Earl of
Derby, who was executed more than two centuries
and a half ago, and there are some monuments now
in the Derby Chapel erected three-quarters of a
century after the death of the persons they com-
memorate; so the argument of style is not very
78 The Heraldry of Ormskirk Church
reliable, and seventy -five years before Mr. Thorne-
ley s date would bring us to that of the most famous
warrior and knight of the Scarisbrick race, Henry
of that ilk, a hero of Agincourt, whom I am inclined
to believe this brass commemorates.
When excavating Burscough Priory some years
since, I found in the centre of the south wall of the
south transept — the Scarisbrick Chapel — a partly
recessed, partly projecting, canopied tomb {Trans^
actions^ vol. v., New Series, p. 143), on which this
brass probably once lay, as even Mr. Thorneley's
date is before the destruction of that monastery,
and the pontomb shown on the drawing is evidently
of later date than the brass depicted on it, which,
with the three effigies subsequently described,
were, there can be little doubt, removed from
Burscough Priory at the dissolution.
Sir Henry Scarisbrick, Knight, died when the
fame of this Priory was at its meridian ; members of
his family were donors to its endowments, and
witnesses to twenty-eight of its charters, and their
wills prove that they had a sepulchral chapel there.
The prophetic speech which Shakespeare puts into
the mouth of Henry V. shows that, even in
the spacious days of Queen Elizabeth, there were
many similar memorials of the King's knights then
existing : —
** A many of our bodies shall, no doubt,
Find native graves ; upon the which, I trust,
Shall witness live in brass of this day's work."
It would occupy too much space to quote from
the Records — principally the Norman and French
Rolls — on which my identification is based, but
briefly : I believe this brass is intended to com-
memorate the Henry Scarisbrick who married
Katherine, daughter of Sir John Pilkington,
Knight, and accompanied his father-in-law and
The Heraldry of Onnskirk Church 79
brother-in-law to the French wars. The King
summoned 50x3 Lancashire bowmen to assemble at
Warrington, 5th July 141 5, and on the muster-roll,
before embarkation at Southampton, 1 1 th August
141 5, appears the name of "Henry Sharsbrock"
with a retinue of two horse. He probably fought
in the retinue of the King with the 219 Lancashire
archers, who are recorded to have been included in
the monarch's bodyguard at Agincourt, and was
knighted on the field, as his name appears on the
muster-roll after the battle as ** Monsr. Henry de
Sharesbreke, Chivr." with three Esquires, 25th
October 141 5. He returned home with the King,
17th November 141 5, and there are several Records
showing he remained there till 14 19, when the men
of ** Henry Scarisbrek, Knight," were arrayed for
the siege of Pontoise, and again, 6th May 1420,
" Henry Skaresbrek, Knight," and his men were at
the siege of Sens, probably having, in the mean-
time, witnessed the marriage of ** Catherine the Fair,"
the daughter of the King of France, to Henry V.
It is extremely likely that the Knight died, or
was killed, during the siege of Sens, for, i6th July
1420, a writ was issued after the death of " Syr
Henry de Scaresbrek, Chr."
At Agincourt the King wore a surcoat, like that
shown on the brass, but with the quartered arms of
England and France emblazoned on it.
The surcoat of Sir Henry Scarisbrick bears on
the body the arms of a Scarisbrick, which are
repeated on both shoulders of the cape.
The Bickerstaffe Chapel
This, the richest endowed chantry in the church,
is now entirely dismantled, but in the sixteenth
century it occupied the whole of the north transept,
and was " The Chauntrie at the alter of o*r Ladie
So The Heraldry of Ormskirk Church
of Petie w'thin the said Churche of the ffoundacon
of Thomas Athertone of Bikerstath."
Plate 2, Nos. i to i6. — These escutcheons sur-
round two pontombs, now in the Derby Chapel,
but it is quite clear from Dugdale's superscription
that in 1664 they were in the north transept — the
now destroyed Bickerstaffe Chapel on the other
side of the church — indeed, without it, the charges
prove them to belong to the Bickerstaffe family.
Of the one next the chancel, which is the memorial
of James Scarisbrick and Margaret Atherton of
Bickerstaffe, his wife, Dugdale shows the whole of
the twelve escutcheons, though on the one next it
on the south, which is the monument of Peter
Stanley of Hooton and Elizabeth Scarisbrick, his
wife, he only shows four escutcheons, whilst the
charges on six can even now be traced. He has,
too, made the curious mistake of transposing Ad
pedes and Ad caput, for those charges that he shows
at the head are really at the feet, and vice versa, and
he has misread three charges, misplaced another,
and left several un-named.
These pontombs are of the same height, and
exactly alike in detail, whilst some of the Stanley
quarterings shown on both could, strictly speaking,
not be displayed by any of the parties commemor-
ated. These facts tend to show that both were
constructed at the same time by Margaret Stanley
of Bickerstaffe and her husband, Henry Stanley of
Cross Hall, who were entitled to all the charges
displayed, to her parents and grandparents. On
the top of the Scarisbrick pontomb are the
matrices for the brasses of husband and wife, with
those for a shield of arms at the head and feet of
each, and centred under their feet is that for the
child heiress, whilst around the rim is that for the
inscription ; and though all the brasses are now
missing, the following extract from the undated
T^he Heraldry of Ormskirk Church 8i
Towneley MSS. gives a portion of the inscription:
.*' In ye Church of Ormschirche in ye Co. Lancaster,
on a tombe: — * Of Charity pray for ye soules of James
Scarisbricke, of Bickerstaffe, Esquier, and Mar-
garett, his wife, and Elizabeth, their daughter, the
w'ch Margerett deceased ye i8 daye of Jan., in
ye yeare of our Lord God 15 17, and ye same
James dec'ed ye — day of in ye yeare of our
, .' On ye tombe ther is ye portraitures of a
man and a woman in brass ; he hath graven by him
ye coates of Scarisbrick differenced with a crescent.
The woman ye coate of Bicarstaffe and Ather-
ton without difference. Another [coat.^] showing
Atherton to have been ye Lord of Bicarstaffe."
The matrices for the brasses on the Stanley pon-
tomb are exactly alike, except that there is no
matrice for the heiress, who was not dead when
they were erected, circa 1 595.
In describing the charges on these pontombs,
J>late 2, Nos. 1 to it, \ shall follow the actual
ascertained blazon, and call attention to the few
Dugdale mistakes while so doing.
The charges on the escutcheons of the Scaris-
brick pontomb (Nos. 5 to 16) are as follows:
Plate 2, No. 12 — Under the head of the man,
Scarisbrick (as before), with a crescent cadence, for
the second son. . Under that of the woman. No. 1 1,
Quarterly, i and 4, Scarisbrick ; 2, ** Gules, three
hawks close Argent^ beaked, belled, and legged
Or," for Atherton ; 3, ** Argent, on a cross
patonce Sable, five mullets Or," for Bickerstaffe.
Under the feet of the man, No. 10, Scarisbrick.
Under those of the woman, No. 9, **Vert, a lion
rampant Ermine, crowned Or," for Gerard of
Gerard Hall, Aughton. Those under the head
and feet are reversed by Dugdale, and the Gerard
charge is now beyond recognition. On the south
side of this pontomb are : No. 5, Quarterly, i and 4,
F
82 The Heraldry of Ormskirk Church
''Argent, three dragons' heads, erased, fire issuant
from their mouths proper," for Halsall of Halsall, '
and 2 and 3, '* Argent, two bars Azure," for Ven-
ables [?]. No. 6, Quarterly, i and 4, ** Argent, on a
bend Azure, three trucks' heads, cabossed Or," for
Stanley ; 2, Scarisbrick ; 3, Bickerstaffe (both as
before). No. 7, Quarterly, i and 4, gralnd-quarters ;
I and 4, Stanley (as before) ; 2, ** Or, on a chief
dancettee Azure, three plates," for Lathom ; 3,
" Chequy, Or and Azure," for Warren ; 2 and 3,
** Gules, three legs conjoined in fess- point, in
armour Argent, garnished and spurred Or," for the
Isle of Man. No. 8, Quarterly (all exactly as
No. 6). On the north side are : No. 13, Quarterly,
I and 4, Scarisbrick ; 2, Atherton ; 3, Bickerstaffe
(all as before). Dugdale repeats Atherton instead
of this last. No. 14, an impalement. Dexter,
Scarisbrick ; sinister, Gerard (both as before). No.
15, Quarterly, i and 4, "Argent, two chevronels
between three oak-leaves Vert," for Mossoke of
Mossoke Hall, Bickerstaffe [?] 2 and 3, Scarisbrick.
No. 16, Scarisbrick.
On these it may be remarked that the 2nd and
3rd quarters of No. 5 are probably got through a
Banastre marriage, as one of that family married a
Venables. On the drawing the Scarisbrick sign of
cadency is missing from No. 13, from the 4th
quarter of No. 11, and from the 3rd of No. 15.
The tincture of the field on No. 9 and on the
sinister impalement of No. 14 — Vert instead of
Azure — is probably to distinguish Gerard of Gerard
Hall, Aughton, from the parent house of Brynn, as
there is no record of a field Vert with these arms.
Nos. 14 and 15 are now entirely new and without
any charges, and the ist and 4th quarters of No. 15
are almost certainly meant to record a marriage of a
Mossoke; indeed, I have two deeds, dated 15 15,
which record such a marriage, and a sale to a Myles
The Heraldry of Ormskirk Church 83
Gerard of Gerard Hall, though there is no record
of any grant of arms to a Mossoke, and these
charges really belong to Huckley. But these three
families lived within a stone's-throw from each other,
and no doubt in those non-locomotive days fre-
quently intermarried. In Dugdale's identifications
below, he could not make out No. 5. On Nos.
6, 8, and 11 he mistakes Bickerstaffe for Rigby,
though no one conversant with the genealogy of the
family could do that. He fails to identify the ist and
4th quarters of No. 15 and the Stanley quarterings.
Of the escutcheons on the other pontomb of Peter
Stanley of Hooton and Elizabeth Scarisbrick, Dug-
dale only shows the four on the south side. This
pontomb adjoins on the south side the one above
described, and there can still be indistinctly traced
an escutcheon under the heads of both husband
and wife, not shown on the drawing. That under
the head of the man is — Quarterly, i and 4, grand-

terly, I, Scarisbrick; 2 and 3, Bickerstaffe; 4,

under the feet is a plain slab, and the four escut-
cheons on the north side are quite new and without
84 The Heraldry of Ormskirk Church
any heraldry. There is an incision on the east wall
of the Bickerstaffe Chapel, the exact length of this
pontomb, which proves that the present north side
of it was let into this wall, whilst Dugdale's super-
scription shows that the other pontomb stood in
medio predicti Chori. The Bickerstaffe cross on
N OS. 2 and 3 has not the five mullets shown on
Nos. 6, 8, and ii, and the escutcheon of pretence
for Montalt on Nos. 2 and 4 is not shown on No. 7
of the other pontomb. All these are, no doubt,
oversights, as there can be little doubt that all were
meant to be alike.
These two pontombs furnish a perfect display of
the maternal ancestry of the present Earl of Derby,
and of the evolution of the Bickerstaffe estates from
the original Bickerstaffes, through the Athertons,
Scarisbricks, Stanleys of Hooton and Cross Hall
to the Derby family.
The Derby Chapel
This chapel covers the much smaller area of what
was called, until 1572, ** The Chauntrie at the alter
of o'r Ladye," or The Lady Chapel, which was
endowed 29th September and 21st December 1366,
by subscriptions in the church ; the names of the
476 subscribers forming the earliest directory of
the district.
The will of the 3rd Earl of Derby ordered **the
erecting and bylding of one Chappell, and one
Monumente and Towmbe at Ormschurtche." His
body lay at Lathom House for six weeks in 1572,
whilst the burial vault alone was constructed, but
the chapel itself was not finished and dedicated, as
its heraldry shows, until circa 1575.
Plate 3, Nos. i and 3. — These two monuments,
and another, almost a replica of No. 3, and pro-
bably for that reason not shown on the drawing,
The Heraldry of Ormskirk Church 85
are enclosed in panels, No. 3 being oval, and
the other two square, and all the three are com-
memorative of the dedication of this sepulchral
chapel, and are not monumental. No. i is on the
south wall, and the two others on the north wall of
the chapel, and Dugdale has omitted the adjuncts
of them all, which largely aid their identification,
whilst the whole of the charges are now much
worn.
Plate 3, Ne. i. — On the south wall is Quarterly,
I and 4, "Gules, a cross potent crossed next the
centre Or," for Chaderton ; 2 and 3, ''Argent, a
chevron Gules, between three fleams Or," for Che-
tham, in chief the second sign of cadency, floral
mantling, and Esquire's vizor (these three are
omitted on the drawing) with, on a wreath of the
colours, the Crest, "A demi-griffin, segreant Gules "
[charged with the second sign of cadency], for
William Chaderton, D.D., Archdeacon of Rich-
mond, Yorks.
No. 3, on the north wall, is an achievement of
eight quarters: i, Stanley; 2, Lathom ; 3, Man;
4, Warren (all as before) ; 5, '* Gules, two lions
passant guardant Argent," for Strange; 6, "Ar-
gent, a fess and canton Gules," for Woodvile ; 7,
•' Or, a cross engrailed Sable," for Mohun ; 8,
" Azure, a lion rampant Argent," for Montalt ; with
over all, in honour point, an escutcheon of pretence.
Quarterly, i and 4, "Chequy, Or and Azure, a
fess Gules," for Clifford; 2 and 3 "(Barry of ten,
Argent and Gules), a lion rampant Or (ducally
crowned of the second)," for Brandon, encircled by
the ribbon, motto, and mantle of the Garter. Sup-
porters : " Dexter, a griffin ; sinister, a buck, both
Or, ducally collared and chained Azure, the buck
attired of the last." Motto : " Sans changer." On
an Earl's vizor (none of these adjuncts are shown
on the drawing), an Earl's coronet, and the Crest,
86 The Heraldry of Ormskirk ChurcK
** On a chapeau Gules, turned up Ermine, an eagle,
wings endorsed Or, feeding on an infant in its nest
proper, swaddled Azure, banded of the third," for
Henry Stanley, 4th Earl of Derby.
The achievement next this on the north wall
(not on the drawing) is exactly the same, except in
its surroundings, which are — Supporters : " Dexter,
a monkey ; sinister, a wyvern, wings endorsed
proper, both ducally chained and collared Or,"
with floral mantling, and on a Knight's vizor the
Crest, *' Two hands clasped, couped at the wrists
proper," for Ferdinando Stanley, Lord Strange,
afterwards, for seven months, 5th Earl of Derby.
The distinctive escutcheon of pretence, on both
these, is for Margaret, daughter and heiress of
Henry Clifford, 2nd Earl of Cumberland, wife of
Lord Derby, and mother of Lord Strange, and the
differentiation between the two achievements is in
the crests, supporters, vizors, coronet, and garter
adjuncts.
The Earl, his son, and Dr. Chaderton were
Queen Elizabeth's principal agents in Lancashire
for hunting recusants of all types, and the approxi-
mate date of the dedication of this chapel is got by
a comparison of these three panels. From them it
is plain that the father of Lord Strange was alive
when they were erected, and that he was then a
Knight of the Garter, with the insignia of which he
was invested, 20th May 1574, and that Dr. Chader-
ton was not then created Bishop of Chester, as
there is no mitre above, or impalement on his arms
for the See. He was promoted to this bishopric
9th November 1579, therefore the consecration of
this chapel must have been celebrated in the five
years between these dates.
The barry and crown on the Hon of Brandon are
not shown on the drawing, and are now too much
worn to be distinctly recognisable, but the sign of
The Heraldry of Ormskirk Church 87
cadency is now on the Chaderton panel, though not
shown by Dugdale.
Plate 4, No. 1 6- — These arms : " Sable, a fess
Ermine, between three cinquefoils Argent," for
Edward Potter, have not been in the church for
many years, and I have been unable to trace him
or ^account for his burial in the Derby Chapel,
though Dugdale*s superscription ** high up on the
east wall of the south aisle " would be that of the
Derby Chapel.
The Effigies
In figure-drawing Rouge Dragon is not up to
his usual high standard, for the heads of all these
are poorly drawn.
Plate 4, Nos. i, 2, 3, and 4. — Of these effigies
Nos. I, 2, and 3 are coeval in date, ruder and more
worn than No. 4. The men, as shown by the
armorials, are of the Stanley race, both wear a
collar of SS, a surcoat charged with the Stanley
quarterings, and are in armour.
The cnarges on the shoulders of No. 4, are
Quarterly, i and 4, grand - quarters ; i and 4,
Stanley ; 2, Warren ; 3, Lathom ; 2 and 3, Man
(all as before), but on the skirt they are displayed
as an impalement — Dexter, Man ; sinister, Quar-
terly, I and 4, Stanley ; 2, Warren ; 3, Lathom,
which latter arrangement is repeated on the waist.
On No. I there is no Warren charge, and the others
are differently arranged. On the shoulders. Quar-
terly, I and 4, Lathom, impaling Stanley ; 2 and 3,
Man. On the skirt and the waist, an impalement ;
dexter, Man ; sinister, Quarterly, i and 4, Stanley ;
2 and 3, Lathom, though most of the charges on
both the figures are now difficult to trace.
The ladies, Nos. 2 and 3, carry no armorials and
are dressed practically alike ; both wear necklets
88 The Heraldry of Ormskirk Church
(though only that of No. 2 is shown on the draw-
ing), but No. 3 alone wears a coronet.
The legs of both the men, and the hounds under
them, and the arms of both the ladies are now
missing, and the bodies of both the latter are
cracked, but it is clear that this mutilation cannot
be truthfully attributed to the Roundheads, as the
effigies are shown entire in 1 664. They are : —
No. I. Thomas Stanley, ist Earl of Derby.
No. 2. His first wife, Eleanor, daughter of
Richard Neville, Earl of Salisbury.
i^Nos, I and 2 now lie together adjoining the south
wall of the Derby Chapel)
No. 3. His second wife, Margaret, daughter and
heiress of John Beaufort, Duke of
Somerset, and mother of King Henry
VH.
(All these three effigies were erected in Burs-
cough Priory.)
No. 4. Edward Stanley, 3rd Earl of Derby (the
1st Earl buried at Ormskirk).
{^Nos, 3 and 4 now lie together adjoining the north
wall of the Derby Chapel)
The points for identification and differentiation
are : —
(i) The only early Earls of Derby who by will
ordered effigies of themselves ta be executed are
the 1st and 3rd Earls.
(2) The ist Earl ordered his body to be buried
in the midst of his chapel in the north aisle of
Burscough Priory, and "personages" of himself
and both his wives to be erected there.
(3) The 3rd Earl ordered his funeral in a new
chapel to be erected at Ormskirk, and a monument
for himself alone.

FACSIMILE OP SIR WILLIAM DUGDALB'S DRAWING, 1664
90 The Heraldry of Ormsktrk Church
arch separating the Stanley Chantry and Mortuary
at Burscough Priory, on which these effigies (Nos. i,
2, and 3), probably once lay.
The present arrangement of these effigies is
remarkable, as to the ist Earl is allotted his first
wife, whilst his second wife (the mother of King
Henry VII.), now poses as the wife of her step-
great-grandson, the 3rd Earl.
Dugdale's identifications on plate 4 relate (with
the exception of the last) to the armorials on
plate 3, but he omits Chaderton, Gerard, Chaney,
and Banastre (except No. 13, which he attributes
to Langton, who afterwards adopted it), and all the
Stanley quarterings.
It is worth recording that before the Stanley
vault was sealed up I, when a boy, went down into
it and noted that the body of James, 7th Earl
of Derby, was in one coffin and his head in another,
the ends of both fitting each other at a reverse
angle of 45**, indicating that at which the neck had
been severed when he was executed in 1651.
I began this paper with the expressed intention
of describing the heraldry of Ormskirk Church, and
identifying its monuments as a practical example of
the uses of heraldic study, and I hope it may stimu-
late others to apply the technicalities of the science
to similar purposes.
92 An Old Liverpool Captain and His Ship
and they were able to inform me that the
Society's Records show that the ship Hero, Cap-
tain D. Wilcox, was of 400 tons, built in France
in 1775, and that her owner in 1780 was a Mr. S.
Shaw. They were not able to say the port of
registry nor the owner's address, but there is little
doubt the S. Shaw was the firm of S. Shaw & Co.,
at that time carrying on business in Liverpool. It
appears to me quite possible that this S. Shaw
may have been the founder of the eminent firm of
potters. Picton tells us that the firm was founded
early in the eighteenth century, and that Samuel
Shaw died in 1775 ; the name may quite well have
been retained for some years after his death.
From the fact of the Hero being built in France,
I think we may conclude that she was originally a
French privateer captured by the British and turned
into an English one. She carried sixteen guns.
All that we know of her history afterwards is told
us by Mr. Gower Williams in his " History of the
Privateers," from which I take the following para-
graph (pp. 266, 267) : —
'* Early in 1780 the Hero^ Captain Wilcox,
bound for Guinea, was taken by the French and
retaken within a league of Cherbourg by H.M.S.
Champion. On the ist May the Hero was again
taken sixteen leagues south of Cork by a French
privateer, and again retaken from the enemy. Once
more the Hero essayed to reach Africa, only to fall
a prey to the combined fleets of France and Spain,
who sent her to Cadiz." I can find no further
record of the vessel.
The Captain's name first appears as the master
of the vessel Liverpool, owned by the same firm,
being mentioned in Appendix IV. of the ** History of
Privateers " already referred to, this appendix being
a list of the privateers engaged during the years
1775 to 1783.
An Old Liverpool Captain and His Ship 93
Captain Wilcox, after the loss of his ship,
evidently reached home safely; at least his name
appears in the Directory of 1781 as living at 40
Hurst Street, off Mersey Street, and he did what
many of his calling were not able to do, especially
at this stormy time in our history, namely, died in
his bed. In the records, preserved by the Coi"*
poration, of the gravestones removed from St;
Peter s Churchyard, when it was a few years ago
converted into a garden, there are the following
inscriptions of the Captain and his wife, who long
survived him : —
•• Here lieth the body of Captain Daniel Wilcox,
who departed this life 4th June 1789, in y* 59*^ year
of his age. Also, here lieth the body of Mary, the
wife of Captain Daniel Wilcox, who departed this
life 5*^ Jan. 1802, aged 59 years. Universally
lamented by all her friends and acquaintances, she
bore her afflictions with the greatest fortitude ; she
was an affectionate wife, a tender mother, a dutiful
child. Charitable to the distressed and a sincere
friend."
They are in the same grave as John Button and
his wife.
Captain Wilcox s will was registered at Chester
on the 9th June 1789 by his widow, John Swainston,
and Brockelbank.
Here I should like to tell a story about the
Captain which has only recently reached me from
a descendant which throws some light upon the
slave trade.
On ohe of his voyages the Captain jumped over-
board and saved the life of one of the slaves who
had fallen into the sea. The man showed such
gratitude that he was made the Captain's personal
attendant, and always waited on his master. On
one occasion, when on a voyage from the West
Coast of Africa to America, the Captain and his
94 An Old Liverpool Captain and His Ship
officers, including the doctor, were at dinner, when
the negro servant dropped something behind his
master, and, as he stooped to pick it up, he
whispered, " Massa I no drink. Massa ! no drink."
At first Captain Wilcox could not understand what
the man meant, but he took no apparent notice of
the warning, for he realised that such was what
the slave intended, but he closely watched every
movement of the slave during the rest of the meal,
and from something he did he gathered that the
doctor had something to do with it. When the
usual toast was proposed, Captain Wilcox got up
from his seat, and, lifting his glass as though he
were about to drink, suddenly held it out to the
doctor, saying, ** Let us change glasses, doctor."
The doctor declined, and his manner was such that
it confirmed the Captain's suspicions. Taking a
pistol from his pocket, he held out his glass to the
doctor, saying, "You either drink the contents of
this glass or I will shoot you." The sequel, without
giving any detail, is that in the end the doctor
drank the contents, preferring to die by the poison
he had mixed for the Captain. He died a few
minutes after, confessing to a plot to seize the vessel
after killing the Captain and one of the officers.
As my informant says, the length of a voyage
in those days, sometimes extending even to three
years, perhaps justified Captain Wilcox's conduct.
The slave was given his freedom.
The Captain married, on the 24th July 1765,
Mary Robinson, described as a widow, which is, I
think, a mistake, since I find she was the daughter
of Benjamin and Hester Robinson, of Liverpool,
and at the time of her marriage does not appear to
have been more than twenty-two years of age.
Hester Robinson, above mentioned, was the
daughter of John and Mary Button. This John
Button is mentioned in Stonehouse's '* Streets of
'An Old Liverpool Captain and His Ship 95
Liverpool," where the author says, " Button St.,
off Whitechapel, called after Mr. Button, who
was, previous to his death, 18th Nov. 1785, the
oldest Burgess in Liverpool. He lived during six
monarchs' reigns, being born in that of James IL"
I am not prepared to guarantee the strict accuracy
of this statement. The inscription on his tombstone
in St. Peter's Churchyard said that he died on the
13th November 1785 in the ninety-fifth year of his
age, which, I think, would barely carry him back to
James IL, though very nearly.
In connection with this John Button there is one
rather interesting incident, viz. he told his great-
grandson, also a Daniel Wilcox (son of the Captain),
and he passed the story on to John Button Wilcox,
his son, who told the story to his grandson, the
writer of this paper, that he, John Button, had been
present at the opening of St. Peter's Church, and
had been on that occasion on the top of the tower,
and from there at that time it was almost possible
to count all the houses in Liverpool. That was in
1704, thus making a link between the John Button
born in or about James II/s reign and the writer
in Edward VI I. 's reign, a period of over two hun-
dred years, during which time Liverpool has risen
from a large village to be the second city of the
Empire.
Perhaps the strangest coincidence occurs in con-
nection with the bowl itself. The writer, some
years ago, happening to go into Branch & Leete*s
sale-rooms, was astonished to find this bowl there
prepared for an auction. Needless to say the
writer secured it, and thus it returns to the de-
scendant of the first owner after a gap of some-
where about one hundred and twenty years.
Experts may, perhaps, be able to say in what
particular pottery it was manufactured, but I may
hazard a guess that if the owner of the Hero was
96 An Old Liverpool Captain and His Ship
a member of the Shaw family of potters^ then pos-
sibly this bowl may have been one of their manu-
facture. They were the makers of the celebrated
'* Golden Lion '* bowl, now in the Liverpool
Museum.
I have nothing more to say. No doubt many
other members have particulars connected with
their ancestry just as interesting if search were
made. My excuse for troubling you with these
particulars must be the great interest I take in
anything connected with the good old town o>f
which we are all so proud.
May I just add that I append a copy of the will
of John Button, as it may be useful in giving par-
ticulars of various inhabitants of Liverpool at the
date on which it was made, viz. 17th February 1768.

BUTTON STREET
2 ird January 1722. — Lease granted of a piece of land and
two messuages having a frontage of 8 yards to Frog Lane (White-
chapel) of a depth along the north side of Button Street of
27 yards.
Term 3 lives of 21 years. The lives were — the Lessee John
Button, iVIary his wife and Esther his daughter.
5 /A August 1747. — Above Lease renewed to same. Descrip-
tion — 2 houses and several cottages.
Lives — Lessee, Mary daughter of Benj°" Robinson and Esther
wife of s^ Benj°- R.
This Street was evidently formed about the time
the Pool was filled up and Frog Lane formed on
the site. It is only now about 20 yards in length,
and was in all probability merely a passage, at this
time, from Frog Lane to Rainford's Gardens im-
mediately in the rear. It was customary, especially
in this neighbourhood, to name the streets after the
owners or lessees of abutting lands, and that this
was done in the case of Button Street seems con-
clusive.
In 1802 part of the above Lease was sold (Revon)
to W""- Rathbone.
In 1803 other part sold to W""' Gregson.
The remainder expired, and the name of Button
is not again recorded.
SOME ARMORIAL HOUSE-TABLETS IN
LANCASHIRE
Drawn by W. F. Price, with Notes by J, Paul
Py lands, F.S,A.^ and the Artist
THE illustration of fifty examples of house-
tablets in Mr. Price's work, ** Inscribed and
Dated Stones on some old Lancashire Houses,"'
excited a good deal of local interest, although these
tablets, with two exceptions, were not armorial, and
for the most part related to persons of yeoman rank.
It has been suggested that a series of drawings
of local house-tablets displaying armorial bearings
would be of even more interest, and might be
issued from time to time in the volumes of the
Historic Society ; accordingly, as a first instalment,
the accompanying six drawings have been made by
Mr. Price.
Commencing within a radius of a few miles from
Liverpool, the locality of the first four illustrations
may be found to the north of the city, in the flat
tract of country around Aintree and Altcar ; the
world-wide fame of these two places might entitle
this district to be termed the Sportsman's Corner of
Lancashire.
The tablets shown in Figs, i and 2 are both at
Stand House, Netherton. Stand House is situated
one mile to the west of Aintree Station ; the house
itself presents no features of interest, has prob-

used as a farm-house. It was the residence of the
Molyneux family until their removal to Croxteth
Hall in the eighteenth century. Fig; i repre-
sents the keystone of the arched door of the barn ;
the shield and cross are cut in relief, and the initials
and date, CM 1740, are incised. The stone is
somewhat weathered and damaged.
Fig. 2 is a carved panel inserted in the stone-
work on the north side of a building at Stand
House known as '* the deer-house." The deer-
house is built of yellow sandstone, and, owing
to the soft nature of the stone, the panel is very
much weathered ; the shield and supporters are
in relief, and the initials and date, CM 1741, are
incised.
These stones both display the armorial bearings
of Caryll, sixth Viscount Molyneux of Maryborough,
who succeeded to the title in 1738 on the death
of his brother, died unmarried, and was buried at
Sefton Church, 13th November 1745.

This stone panel, carved in high relief, is still in
a good state of preservation. The initials ^^ stand
for Richard, fifth Viscount Molyneux, who suc-
ceeded to the peerage on the death of his father
in T718, died without male issue, and was buried
at Sefton Church, 15th December 1738, aged 60.
He had married, in or about 1705, Mary, daughter
of Francis, Lord Brudenell, but their only son,
William, died in 1706 ; their daughter, Mary, became
the wife first of Thomas Clifton of Lytham, and
secondly of William Anderton of Buxton. The

Hon. Richard Molyneux was one of the English
Catholic Nonjurors of 17 15 who refused to take the
oaths to George II. ; he then had a house at Much
Woolton.
The next illustration, Fig. 4, is at Goore Houses,
in Altcar, a mile and a half north-west from Mag-
hull Station. Goore Houses are a group of isolated
farmsteads on the eastern border of the great plain
of fertile meadow lands, through which the little
river Alt finds its way to the sea.
The house into which this panel has been inserted
has probably undergone some re-building ; it is built
or faced with brick, and stands upon a stone plinth,
has no architectural features of interest, and is now
used as a farm-house. The panel is formed of a
solid slab of stone, with a brick weather moulding ;
the carving is in relief, and the stone has been
painted cream colour, with the lettering, date, and
crosses dark red. It is dated 1596, and has an
unusual heraldic display of three shields. The
larger one, which is above the other two, bears the
plain cross-moline of the family of Molyneux of
Sefton, and is probably intended to represent the
landlord and lessor. The other two shields, which
are side by side, we may assume to be those of the
lessee and his wife. They show (i) the arms of
Molyneux, with a lozenge-shaped piercing in the
centre of the cross-moline, and (2) the well-known
coat of Osbaldeston of Osbaldeston.
It is not easy to give an exact explanation of
these three shields, but Mr. R. D. Radcliffe has
kindly supplied the following note concerning the
Molyneux and Osbaldeston alliances : —
Sir William Molyneux, of Sefton, Knight, fought
at Flodden, and died in 1548. He married, as his
second wife, Elizabeth, daughter and heiress of
Cuthbert Clifton, by whom he had (among others)
a son, Thomas, who married Cecily, one of the
I02 Some Armorial House-Tablets in Lancashire
daughters of Sir Alexander Osbaldeston, of
Osbaldeston, Knight, who died in 1543. Her
half-brother, John Osbaldeston, born 1507, died
1575-76, paid through his tenant, the widow of
Laurence Baron, rent for ** the half of Edge" in
Sefton, and rent for a tenement in Netherton also,
to Sir Richard Molyneux.
Cecily's sister-in-law, Eleanor, wife of her
brother, Richard Osbaldeston, was living in Sefton
i^ 1 599* Eleanor's son, Edward Osbaldeston,
married Margaret, daughter of John Molyneux, of
Little Crosby, who was the third son of Sir
Richard Molyneux, who died in 1568.
Another panel on the barn of this farm at Goore
Houses is figured in ** Inscribed and Dated Stones,"
page 34 ; this displays the Molyneux cross (not on
a shield), accompanied by the initials jy^ of some
tenant and the date 1741.
In Figs. 5 and 6 we have representations of the
Eagle and Child, a cognisance of the House of
Stanley, and the branches and leaves of a tree in
each case show that the carvincr is intended to
allude to the well-known legend of Oskatel de
Lathom.
Fig. 5 is over the door of the west wing of
Holland House, situated half a mile to the north
of the village of Upholland in the parish of
Wigan. Upholland is a quaint hill-side village,
with steep and crooked streets ; its beautiful Priory
Church is about to be ** restored " to celebrate
the sixth centenary of the foundation of the
Priory.
Holland House is approached through an avenue
of trees — the house has been modernised — and
externally is of no interest apart from the traces
it bears in heraldic tablets and old spout-heads of
its former owners or tenants. At the time this

there is another leaden spout-head bearing the
letters and date R c. These may relate to some

tenant or possibly to one of the Bootle family.
Fig. 6 represents a panel on an old stone-built
house, on the north side of the churchyard of
Upholland, locally known as ** Derby House,"
and perhaps formerly used for the Court's Leet of
the Earl of Derby. The carving is considerably
weathered. This panel, dated 1633, was set up
in the lifetime of James Stanley, seventh Earl of
Derby, known as '*the Martyr Earl," who was
beheaded at Bolton in 1651.
At the back of " Derby House " there is another
panel showing the Legs of Man, another cog-
nisance of the Stanleys, with the initials 1/5 R.c. ic.
and the date 1633; this is figured and described
in '* Inscribed and Dated Stones," page 50.
Close to Pimbo Lane Station and about a mile
from the village of Upholland there is an old
house known as ** the Balcony." It is built of
stone, and is approached through a pair of fine
gate-piers with ball finials. The house is entered
from a square porch, over which is a stone panel
of the Eagle and Child. No date is visible, and
the panel is much weathered.

NATHANIEL HAWTHORNE'S HOUSE
IN ROCK PARK
The following letter addressed to the Editor of the Liverpool Mercury
is worthy of being placed on permanent record here, as a vindi-
cation of the action of the Sub-Committee of this Society which
deals with the matter of Memorial Tablets : —
Dear Sir, — In your recent review of Mr. Julian
Hawthorne's new work, entitled ** Hawthorne and
his Circle," your reviewer cites the author s account
of how he identified the house his father had occu-
pied at Rock Ferry as a noticeable example of bad
taste. As the matter is one of considerable local
interest, may I hope that you will find space in an
early issue for the account referred to and the
appended correction thereof.'^ Mr. Julian Haw-
thorne writes (p. 122) as follows : —
*' As I have already made one confession in these
pages not reflecting credit upon myself, I may as
wdl make another now. Just thirty years after the
events I am describing, somebody wrote to me
from Rock Park, stating that the local inhabitants
were desirous of putting up on the house which
Hawthorne had occupied there, a marble or bronze
slab recording the fact for the benefit of pilgrims.
The Committee, however, did not know which of
three or four houses was the right one, and the
writer enclosed photographs of them all, and re-
quested me to put a cross over our former habita-
tion. Now, all the houses in Rock Park had been
turned out of the same mould, and I knew no more
than my interrogator which was which. But I
X09
1 1 o Communications
reflected that the Committee had been put to trouble
and expense for photographs, postage stamps and
what not, and that all that was really wanted was
something to be sentimental over. So, rather than
disappoint them, I resorted to a kind of sortes
virgUiance ; I shut my eyes, turned round thrice,
and made a mark at hazard on the line of photo-
graphs. The chances against my having hit it
right were only four to one ; the Committee were
satisfied, the pilgrims have been made happy, and
it is difficult to see where harm has been done.
Nevertheless, the matter has weighed somewhat
on my conscience ever since, and I am glad to
have thus lightened myself of it."
From the inquiries I have made I can only
conclude that Mr. Julian Hawthorne is labouring
under an extraordinary delusion. There are no
grounds for the regrets which have caused his
peculiar confession, but, on the other hand, the con-
fession must cause many regrets. No tablet has
ever been placed on the house wherein Nathaniel
Hawthorne and his family resided in Rock Park,
Rock Ferry.
The facts are as follows :— In the year 1891 the
vicar of Rock Ferry (the Rev. W. L. Paige-Cox)
and the editor of Wirral Notes and Queries (the
Rev. Francis Sanders) desired to identify the house
in Rock Park where Nathaniel Hawthorne lived
when he was the American Consul at Liverpool.
In the course of the inquiries Mr. Paige-Cox wrote
to the then American Consul, Mr. Thomas H.
Sherman. Mr. Sherman wrote to Mr. Julian
Hawthorne, and received a reply which was pub-
lished and now lies before me. In the reply to
Mr. Sherman, Mr. Julian Hawthorne expressed
himself as ''much gratified to hear of the proposed
placing of a tablet on the house." He described
the houses as he remembered them, quoted a
Communications 1 1 1
description from his mothers diary, and amongst
other information, gave (correctly) the name of
** our next-door neighbours on the left as you
faced the house." There is no reference to photo-
graphs in the letter, as there would have been
if any had been sent to be marked. Both Mr.
Paige-Cox and Mr. Sanders have informed me that
no photographs were taken, and consequently none
were sent to Mr. Julian Hawthorne. Mr. Sanders
published in the Wirral Notes and Queries for
May 1892 (vol. i. pp. 34-6) an account of " Haw-
thorne's Home in Rock Park." The article is
illustrated with a view of the house. The illustra-
tion was not taken from a photograph, but from
a pen and ink drawing. At the end of the article
Mr. Sanders appealed for subscriptions to defray
the cost of a tablet. No subscriptions were re-
ceived, no tablet was erected, and consequently
there have been no pilgrims to be made happy.
Mr. Julian Hawthorne asks if any harm has been
done.*^ Retrospectively, no. Prospectively, yes.
If a tablet should ever be placed on the house,
Mr. Julian Hawthorne's extraordinary confession
will be repeatedly quoted to throw doubt on the
identity of the house, and so ridicule those who
may have placed a tablet thereon. To have pre-
vented a tablet from being placed on the house is
not a very serious matter, but it should not have
been done in such a peculiar manner by the son
of the man to whose memory the tablet would be
intended as a mark of respect.
About the year 1896, the Historic Society of
Lancashire and Cheshire took up the work of
erecting tablets on houses in this district with
which distinguished people have been associated.
My reason for troubling you now is to assure the
public who have so kindly contributed to the cost
of the tablets we have erected, that every care has
1 1 2 Communications
been taken to accurately identify the ' houses. No
memory is trusted unless it confirms, or is con-
firmed by, authentic records. The advantage of
this system is that it prevents the Committee from
being fooled by any humorist — either American
or English. The defect of the system is that it
will not prevent any humorist from thinking that
he has fooled the Committee. With apologies for
troubling you at such length.

the modern titles, and the word ** abolished" has
been added to the names of streets done away with.
One of the first results of the list is to enable us
to correct what was probably a printers error in
Enfield's ''History of Liverpool."^ Referring to
Perry's plan of the town, published in 1769, Enfield
said : —
** It may not be improper to mention the changes
which have taken place in the names of some
streets, in consequence of the late improvement
of writing the names at the end of each. . . ."
A list of streets with their changed names is then
given, the last five of which should be as follows : —

Rosemary Lane Fazakerley Street
Sea Bank Sea Brow
Squire's Garden Chorley Street
Hitherto the first directory of Liverpool has
generally been used as a base for an anecdotal
lecture, but by means of this list of the streets and
their residents it is now possible to be analytical —
to leave conjecture, or what J. Wallace^ has called
the "doctrine of supposes,' • and to get nearer to
facts. The first statement to be corrected is that
socially there was an '* east end " and a ** west end **
to the town. It may be taken for granted that
some of the richer people resided on the outskirts,
but the list shows that the merchants, professional
men, tradesmen, and labourers were in every street.
It would be interesting to know upon what plan
John Gore compiled his first directory. The popu-
lation of the town in 1766 was about 30,000, and
the number of houses has been estimated at about
6000. The directory contains 1 1 34 names, or less

than a fifth of the estimated number of house-
holders. On the title-page the directory is de-
scribed as "an alphabetical list of the merchants,
tradesmen, and principal inhabitants." What was
the **hall-mai"k" of respectability on those in-
cluded }
According to Williamson's plan ^ there were
about 166 streets, but in the directory there are
the names of only 106* (exclusive of dock ad-
dresses). Of the 60 streets omitted some would
probably be in course of construction, others would
only contain a few residents, and those not of suffi-
cient importance to be entered. In the directory
there are some addresses — such as Thomas Mercer,
ship-carpenter, GorrelVs Yard — which do not appear
important, while streets which, looking at the map,
we might regard as important, are either not named,
or are shown to have contained only a few residents
worthy of being included.
The streets from which the most names were
taken were : —
Dale Street . .
. 69
Ranelagh Street
. 26
Castle Street .
• 52
Chapel Street .
. 26
Water Street . .

Derby Square had 19 residents worthy of being
included, while Church Street could only supply 9
and Williamson Square 7.
In order to make the street directory it was
necessary to write each name and profession or
trade on a card. After the directory was printed,
my sister classified the cards according to pro-
* Published in 1766.
* In Enfield's " History," p. 21, the number of streets is stated to
have been in 1773 about 230,
ii6 Liverpool Directory, 1766
fissions and trades. Lists of the professional men
ar^ appended, but space can only be granted for
little more than a passing reference to the other
occupations.
The directory for 1766 contains the names of
twenty-nine people who were described as gentle-
men, and many are names well known to us all.
Ten lived in the neighbourhood of Old Hall Street,
five in the vicinity of Hanover Street, and the
remainder in Water Street, Castle Street, Pool
Lane, &c. One hundred and eighty-eight people
were described as ** Merchants," of whom seventy-
two resided north of Lord Street (thirty-six lived
in Dale Street) and one hundred and sixteen south
of Lord Street.
Sixteen Ministers are named, of whom eleven
were Clergymen, and four Dissenting Ministers.
The town appears to have had twenty-two
Attomies-at-law, of whom twelve were in John
Street, Dale Street, Castle Street, Harrington
Street, Fenwick Street, and Water Street, the
locality for the lawyers of to-day. Of Physicians
there were four and of Surgeons seventeen (some
of whom were described as Surgeons and Apothe-
caries), and to these must be added seven Druggists
and Apothecaries. There were six Architects and
Surveyors in the town. Under Education we find
two Boarding-schools, both kept by ladies ; thirteen
Schoolmasters, one of whom, Egerton Smith, was
described as a Schoolmaster and Printer ; one French
teacher, one Fencing-master, and two Dancing-
masters.
Booksellers and Stationers numbered four. Book-
binders two, while there was only one Engraver and
one Portrait painter, William Caddock,^ who did
^ This name was spelled "Caddock'' in the directories for 1766,
1767 and 1769, but in 1774 and the subsequent issues it appears as
" William Caddick."

not attain sufficient fame to be included in the
** Dictionary of National Biography." Of Captains
and Mariners there were eighty-seven, but of Pilots
only four.
W. Moss, in his " Liverpool Guide," ^ stated that
** the principal manufactures are chiefly confined to
what is necessary to the construction and equip-
ment of ships," That remark applies as forcibly
to 1766 as to 1797, for while there were only
four Boat-builders, there were many Block-makers,
Sail-makers, Rope-makers, Ship- carpenters, and
Anchor-smiths. The Potters and Mugmen num-
bered twenty-four, Sugar-bakers seven, and there
was one firm of Silk-weavers, appropriately located
in Spittalfields. Three Coal Merchants appear to
have been sufficient to supply the inhabitants with
fuel, and there was only one Fishmonger, while it
may perhaps be taken as a sign of prosperity that
there was only one Pawnbroker.
The names of thirty-eight Brewers were included,
but many of those would probably be Inn-keepers
who brewed the ale they retailed, and a little more.
Twenty-four Hotel- and Inn-keepers are here re-
corded. If these figures could be accepted as giving
even an appro^fimate estimate of the drinking facili-
ties in the town, the number could not be regarded
as excessive, but, unfortunately, there is another
statement of the case on record. When Samuel
Derrick, Master of the Ceremonies at Bath, visited
** Leverpoole" in 1760 he wrote in one of his
letters : —
*'The rum is excellent, of which they (the
Merchants) consume larg^ quantities. . . . But
they pique themselves greatly upon their ale, of
which almost every house brews a sufficiency for
its own use ; and such is the unanimity prevailing
^ Second edition, 1797, p. 116.
1x8 Liverpool Directory, 1766
among them, that if by accident one man's stock
runs short, he sends his pitcher to his neighbour
to be filled."
When such manners and customs prevailed there
would not be any necessity for a large number of
public-houses.
But here I must stop, for our object in compiling
the street directory has not been to provide material
for an essay on Liverpool's inhabitants, but to en-
deavour to make the directory of 1766 more useful
for others to work with. It is for those interested
in local historical research to say whether the result
is worth the labour. Personally, I think that it is,
but I do not suggest that a street supplement should
be made to all Gore's directories published between
1766 and 1839, the date when street or, as they are
entitled, numerical directories began to be regularly
added to the publication.
If street directories for the other eighteenth cen-
tury issues be called for, I would suggest that a
street directory for 1803 be made first. My reason
for this suggestion is that Horwood published a
map of Liverpool in 1803 on which are stated the
numbers of the houses in the principal streets, and
from that we should be able to locate in each street
the places, of abode of the people named in the
directory, and also to give the names of all the
intervening streets. With a street directory com-
piled for 1803, it would be possible, working back-
wards, to approximately locate the people named in
all the eighteenth century directories to 1773, when
the houses were first numbered. In 1766 the houses
in the town had no numbers affixed to them, and
consequently the names of the residents have had
to be arranged alphabetically under the name of each
street Such is the suggestion — of its practicability
I have no doubt ; of its utility others must judge.
Having thus dealt with the first Liverpool direc-
Liverpool Directory^ 1766 119
tory, it will, I think, be of assistance to students of
local history if I give here an account of the subse-
quent issues and their contents. In doing this I
shall not be going over ground already covered.
It is true that Sir James Picton read a very interest-
ing paper to the Historic Society, entitled ** History
and Curiosities of the Liverpool Directories,"^ but,
with the exception of a short and incomplete biblio-
graphy at the beginning of his paper, he devoted
his attention to the names in the directory of 1875.
Sir James's paper proves how entertaining an able
and accomplished man can make a mere list of names,
but I hope to show in these pages that the value of
the old directories is not limited to their lists of
names.
As the early editions of the directories were but
small pamphlets it is not surprising that only a
very few copies have come down to us. There
is not a complete set in any library, and it would
be impossible at the present time to make a com-
plete set of perfect copies. There is no correct
bibliography of them. Picton,^ Boardman,' and
Fishwick* have all attempted a bibliography, but
their lists differ, and none is complete. I have
appended to this paper a list, which is, I think,
complete, and I have seen and handled each direc-
tory therein named.
When John Gore decided to publish a Liverpool
directory, he evidently intended it to be something
more than a list of names, and from the first the
directory has been a handbook of useful local in-
formation. To each issue was added an appendix,
and it is to the development of the information in
* Historic Society's Transactions^ vol. xxix. p. 9.
* IHd.^ p. 14.

1871), p. 53-
* "The Lancashire Library," 1875, pp. 105-6.
I20 Liverpool Directory y 1773
these appendices, and its historical value, that I
now desire to draw attention.
Gore was not the first to publish the information
contained in his appendices, and it is highly pro-
bable that he took the idea from " The Liverpool
Memorandum Book," published in 1753. In the
first directory this supplemental information was
strictly limited to lists of the Corporation, Com-
mittees of Watch, Officers of the Customs, Stage
Coaches, Carriers, and Trading Vessels. In the
next issue was added a table of the Kings and
Queens of England, and a ** catalogue" of the
Archbishops, Bishops, and Deans. In 1769 a list
of the Judges was substituted for the list of Kings
and Queens.
The edition assigned to 1773, as well as the one
published in 1774, do not differ materially from
the directory of 1769, but the 1773 issue contains
the following interesting editorial note, from which
we obtain a glimpse of the difficulties with which
Gore had to contend : —
**The Editor begs leave to inform the public that
in the compilation of the Liverpool Directory he
hath used the utmost care and attention, but such
is the flourishing state and daily growth of the
town, that he despairs of attaining wish'd-for
accuracy without its friendly assistance : he there-
fore makes it his earnest request, that those persons
whose names are omitted, would be so obliging as
to leave their particular addresses at John Gore's
shop, near the Exchange, which shall be printed
and delivered gratis to the purchasers of this useful
publication."
'*The very small sale of the former editions of
this work had well nigh prevented any further
attempt of the same kind ; but the publisher,
anxious of contributing his mite to the service of
the community, has determined once more to
L iverpool Directories, 17 77-17 90 121
solicit its continuance and support ; and he hopes
for so much encouragement as will enable him
annually to accommodate the town with an accu-
rate and correct Liverpool Directory."
This appeal must have met with the desired
response, for, apparently, Gore published a direc-
tory in the following year, 1774.
He probably then found that an annual directory
was not wanted, as his next edition did not appear
until 1777, when the appendix was increased, and
lists of local Bankers, Churches, Clergymen,
Churchwardens, Dissenting Chapels and their
Ministers added.
In the issue for 1781 further lists were added of
the local Hospitals and the Doctors attending. Trus-
tees of charities, and a list of streets. Whether
the publication of these directories had not proved
profitable enough it is impossible to say, but there
is no evidence that any directory was issued by
Gore between 1781 and 1790.^ Down to the latter
year John Gore had been the only publisher of the
directories, but in January of 1 790 a directory was
published by Charles Wosencroft, Printer. In his
preface Wosencroft stated that —
"The want of a correct directory, for this large
commercial town, induced me (at the request of
several respectable gentlemen) to undertake the
compiling of one, which I flatter myself I have
completed.**
** I mean regularly to publish a directory every
two years, and hope that it will be found agreeable
to the Gentlemen, Merchants, and Traders of the
liberal and spirited town of Liverpool.**
Presumably it was not agreeable to the Gentle-
men, &c., as this printer never issued another.
The appendix to Wosencroft*s directory did not
* See footnotes on page 134.
122 Liverpool Directories^ 17 90- 17 94
contain any new feature, while it omitted some of
the lists to be found in the earlier directories.
After the issue of this (if not on account of it),
but in the same year, Gore published another
directory. The work bears evidence of having
been carefully revised, and the supplemental in-
formation was considerably augmented. On the
title-pages of the directories from 1774 is the
sentence, **with the numbers as they are affixed
to their houses." On the title-page of the issue for
1790 this sentence is altered to ** with the numbers
as they are (or ought to be) affixed to their houses."
It would be interesting to know if Wosencroft's
reference to *' the want of a correct directory " had
prompted this alteration. But it is in the appendix
to this edition that historical students will find the
greatest change. In addition to the lists which it
had become usual to add to each issue, we find lists
of Mayors and Bailiffs from 1625,^ Recorders from
1577, and Town Clerks from 1568, Members of
Parliament ; Extracts from Acts of Parliament re-
lating to the town ; Bye-laws of the Council ; Dock
Duties from 1752 ; Post Office Regulations and cost
of postage ; Justices of the Peace ; and a full list of
the '* Names of the streets, lanes, &c., within the
Liberties of Liverpool, with the number of per-
sons in each house." This directory is extremely
valuable for that list of streets, if for nothing else.
Gore did not publish another directory until
1796, but in the year 1794 there appeared "The
Liverpool Directory and Guide." ^ This was the
first directory to contain a sketch of the history
of the town. The names of the inhabitants are
classified as follows : Gentry, Clergy, Physic, Law,
Traders, &c. The note with which this directory
ends is sufficiently interesting to justify quoting : —
^ In the directories issued between (and including) 1823 and 1845,
the list of Mayors begins at the year 1443. '^ See footnote, p. 135.
Liverpool Directories^ 1 794-1 796 123
'* Great improvements have been made here with
respect to accommodations for sea-bathing. The
corporation have just finished (June 1794), at a
considerable expence, a most complete set of baths
into which the water flows from the sea, and having
the singular advantage of private baths introduced
into the dressing-rooms, but so connected with the
large ones, that a person may either bathe privately
in his dressing-room or swim out into the great
baths. At the same place are also provided accom-
modations for those who prefer bathing in the sea,
which have also separate dressing-rooms, and every
requisite convenience. And within a short distance
from the town along the shore are bathing-machines
on the construction of those at Brighton and Mar-
gate. The whole is upon a plan so much superior
to anything of the kind in this part of the kingdom,
that it is expected to bring a great resort of com-
pany, especially when combined with it are the
powerful attractions of the theatre, music-meeting,
and other amusements usual here during the
summer."
The next directory is Gore^s for 1796, and it is
interesting to see how that enterprising publisher
"learned from his enemies.*' The appendix to this
edition, which extends to 72 pages, contains all that
was in his issue for 1790, plus a list of *' Attornies
practising in the Borough," and a much better
"sketch of the Town and Trade" than appeared
in the rival publication of 1794. This sketch is
remarkable for the following spirited defence of
Liverpool : —
"The different Itineraries and Gazetteers, pub-
lished for some years back, have been uniform in
describing Liverpool as it was about eighty years,
or a hundred years ago, and mention buildings as
now standing that are hardly in the memory of any
of its inhabitants, and that it is next to Bristol in its
124 Liverpool Directories ^ 1800- 1805
commerce ; but it has long taken the lead of that
ancient and opulent city, in a most superior de-
gree, as appears by the Journals of the House of
Commons. The late demands of men from the
different ports, proportioned to the tonnage, where
Liverpool is required to furnish 171 1, and Bristol
666, may be also quoted in confirmation, and the
more modern publications, particularly the * En-
cyclopedia Britannica,' seem inclined to pay a
proper deference to truth in their reports."
In 1800 ** Schofield's New Liverpool Directory"
appeared, but as no more directories were issued
by **J. Schofield," he evidently did not find the
venture profitable. Nor is that to be wondered at,
for his directory contains less than Gore's for the
same year, and nothing but what Gore's includes.
Gore's issue for 1800 does not call for special
mention, but the issue for 1803 is interesting
because it contains short histories of the various
Literary Institutions then existing in the town. It
was also the last issue by John Gore, the originator
of the publication.
The year 1804 saw another rival publication, viz.
** Woodward's New Liverpool Directory." In the
preface the publisher apologised for the delay in the
publication, and stated that *' future editions, it is
confidently presumed, will be issued with greater
celerity." There were no future editions.
This directory was practically a copy of Gore's ;
in fact the publisher must have based his work on
Gore's publication. It has, however, two lists
which are not to be found in Gore's, viz. a list
of Pawnbrokers, and the first list of Town Duties
published in any Liverpool directory. A list of the
Town Dues was not published in Gore's directory
until 182 1.
The directory for 1805 ^^^ the first published by
Johnson Gore. In the preface he states that he " has
Liverpool Directory, 1805 125
pleasure to announce that he has prepared a new
and improved edition of the Liverpool Directory,
which under the superintendance and exertions of
his late father, was favoured with the approbation
and patronage of the public, for the space of forty
years. . . . To render this publication as correct
a guide as the nature of the undertaking will allow,
neither time, nor labour, nor expense, have been
wanting. ... If his endeavours in this instance
should answer the wishes of the public, it is his
design at certain intervals to reprint a direc-
tory. . . ."
The additional information contained in this
edition is (i) Lists of London Bankers, Country
Bankers, with the names of their London Agents,
and Irish Bankers; (2) A list of the new stamp
duties passed in 1804. Apart, however, from the
information just cited, the issue will always be
valuable because it contains nearly all the impor-
tant local information published in '* The Liverpool
Memorandum Book" for 1753, above referred to.
The following must have been taken from that
work : —
A short description of Liverpool in 1752. •
A list of Magistrates and their officers in the
Borough of Liverpool, November 1752.
A list of the streets, lanes, squares, alleys, &c.
in the town of Liverpool, 1752.
A list of gentlemen belonging to the Custom
House with their respective salaries per
year, 1752.
A list of the Company of Merchants trading to
Africa . . . belonging to Liverpool, June 24,
.1752.
A list of vessels trading from Liverpool to the
^ coast of Africa, with their Commanders' and
Owners' names, what part of the coast each
126 Liverpool DtrectorieSy 1807-18 13
ship goes to, and for what number of slaves;
December, 1752.
A list of vessels employed in the West Indian
and American trade, &c. belonging to Liver-
pool, with their present Commanders' and
Owners' names.
The directory for 1807 contains a list of streets,
lanes, &c., in Liverpool in 1725. The remarkable
item in the appendix to this edition is " A list of
vessels that have cleared out at the Port of Liver-
pool, for the coast of Africa, from the first of
January 1806 (with the time of their sailing) to
the first of May 1807, at which time the trade for
slaves was totally abolished by act of Parliament."
The names of the ships lost, taken, blown up, and
seized, are specially marked. This list has not been
reprinted in any of the books dealing with the
Liverpool Slave Trade to which I have access.
In 1 8 10 the title of the publication was altered
to *' Directory of Liverpool and its Environs," and
there was included in the volume the following use-
ful information : —
List of Chapelwardens and Sidesmen of the
parochial Chapel of Our Lady and St.
Nicholas, when Liverpool formed a parish
of Walton, and there was no other Church
or Chapel of that kind in Liverpool. (1681-
1698.)
List of Churchwardens and Sidesmen of Liver-
pool after it was separated from Walton.
(1699-1809.)
Passing the issue of 181 1 as not containing any
new feature, we come to the directory for 181 3,
which was the first directory to contain the *' Annals "
of Liverpool. They occupy four and a half pages.
It is also worthy of recording that this directory
Liverpool Directories ^ 1816-1818 127
contains a '*list of streets with their admeasure-
ment," and a " list of the docks, &c., with their
admeasurement." In 1816 the "Annals" were
omitted, and in their place were inserted useful lists
of ** London and Country Newspapers"; and of
the charges under the *' New Window Duty." In
the publication for 1818 the "Annals" reappeared,
being specially named on the title-page, and they
bear evidence of having been- revised, rearranged,
and considerably added to-— they fill seventeen pages.
We are, of course, all acquainted with the value of
the '- Annals," but I would remind those who may
have occasion to refer to them that they should not
be content with a reference to the latest issue of
the directory. Since the year 1829,1 when they
began to.be a permanent addition, the "Annals"
have been regularly added to and revised, and
accounts of events which, at the time they occurred,
appeared to be important, have since been reduced
to a mere notice or else omitted altogether. It
therefore follows that the "Annals" in an edition
of the directory about the time any event happened
will often be found to contain information not
obtainable in a later issue. Before passing from
this subject I venture to draw attention to one of
the entries in the "Annals" which appears to me
to be of interest. From 181 8 to 1865, ^.t the
beginning of this section in each issue of the
directory, was the following paragraph : —
"Liverpool Fair-days are 25th July and nth
November. Ten days before and ten days after
each Fair-day, a *hand is exhibited in front of the
Town Hall, which denotes protection, during which
time, no person going or coming to the said Town
on business connected with the Fair, can be arrested
for debt within the liberties."
In 1867 the entry was altered from " is exhibited "
* They were omitted in 1827.
128 Liverpool Directories^ 1 821-1824
to ''was exhibited" and has so continued ever
since.
The directory for 1 8 1 8 contains * * a list of vessels
that have cleared out from the Port of Liverpool
for the East Indies, since the passing of an Act of
Parliament, 181 3, regulating the Trade to and from
the places within the limits of the East India
Company's charter."
The issues of the directory for 1821, 1823, 1825
resemble their immediate predecessors, and do not
call for any special notice.
There is no record of any other publishers issuing
directories between 1804 ^tnd 1824, but in the latter
year appeared a publication which, if it did not
threaten the monopoly which Messrs. J. Gore and
Son appear to have established, it at least demon-
strated that it was possible for them to improve
their directory. In 1824 Messrs. William Wales and
Co. of Liverpool published a *' History, Directory
and Gazetteer of the County Palatine of Lancaster,"
by Edward Baines. This work was much more
ambitious than anything which had hitherto been
attempted for either the town or county. The
section devoted to Liverpool is larger than Gore's
directory and differs from it in many ways. It con-
tains a good history of the town (good for a publica-
tion of that kind), but its principal interest lies in
•the compilation.
For the first time the directory was divided into
the three divisions with which we are now so well
acquainted, viz.: —
1. Names of inhabitants with addresses.
2. Classification of the professions and trades in
the town.
3. Street directory. Names of the inhabitants
in the principal streets of business, arranged
according to the successive numbers of their
dwellings or establishments.
Liverpool Directory, 1827 129
The appendix contains much that is in Gore's
publication, but, in addition, gives a list of the Mail
Coach routes. In September 1825 Baines issued
a supplement to the Liverpool portion of his work
containing corrections and additions, but he issued
no more Liverpool directories. In Gore's directory
for 1827, we see two of Baines's ideas adopted, viz.
(i) An alphabetical list of the professions and
principal trades, and (2) the announcement that in
the following year the publishers would issue a
supplement containing the alterations up to that
period. Such a supplement Gore also issued to the
1829 edition, the idea being to give the directory
all the advantages of an annual publication, while
avoiding the labour and expense entailed by re-
printing the whole volume each year.
The year 1827 also saw another attempt on the
part of a rival firm of local stationers to establish a
directory. Messrs. Andrew Picken & Son published
*' Picken's Annual Directory of Liverpool and its
Environs, for 1827.*' Only one edition appeared,
but that deserves a passing notice. It does not
contain any historical information, and the useful
local information usually included in the appendices
to the directories was, in this instance, published
on a sheet. Very few, if any, copies of that sheet
are now to be found — I have never seen one. That
was an idea that all who are interested in records
of the past may be thankful Messrs. J. Gore & Son
did not adopt. In the preface to this directory
appears the following interesting paragraphs : —
" We trust the attention of the spirited local
authorities of this important town will shortly be
drawn to the exceedingly incorrect manner in which
the houses are numbered, particularly in the out-
skirts, where correct numbers are most wanted,
and in great part of which the houses are not
numbered at all."
I
•
130 Liverpool Directory^ 1829
In a footnote to this paragraph it is stated that : —
** In the principal cities of Scotland, the houses
are numbered thus : on the right hand side run the
even numbers, and on the left the odd — ^alternately
— an excellent plan for knowing on which side you
are to make your inquiry, if you know the number
you want. . . /'
This system of numbering the houses in Liverpool
was adopted about 1838, eleven years after Messrs.
Pickens' suggestion. These publishers concluded
their preface by appealing for support on the
peculiar ground that the '* undertaking has at least
the merit of being very unsuitable to indolence or
want of perseverance."
Gore's Liverpool directories may be roughly
divided into three series, according to their sizes : —
The first, or small octavo series extends from
1766 to 1827.
The second, or narrow octavo series, extends
from 1829 to 1855.
The third, or large octavo series, extends from
1857 to the present day.
The reason for altering the size and shape of the
directory for 1829 may have been to add to the
convenience in handling it — and certainly the long
narrow volume is very easy to hold and refer to —
but I think that it is probable the real object of
the publishers was to arrange for the insertion of
advertisements. It is indeed surprising that these
publications were not systematically used for general
advertising until 1832, and the surprise on this point
is the greater as Messrs. J. Gore & Son were also
the publishers of a newspaper, and as such possessed
a great advantage for the development of their
directory for advertising purposes.
The changes in the directory from 1829, with
one or two exceptions, do not call for special notice,
Liverpool Directories 131
and I therefore need not occupy your time with
such a minute description of the contents of the
issues of succeeding years. The first of the ex-
ceptions to which I wish to refer was in 1839, when
the first numerical or street directory was inserted.
The numbering of the houses had been altered, and
the odd numbers are in this directory given as
being on one side of the street, and the even
numbers on the other. In 1859 this portion of
the directory was made more useful by the addition
of the names of the intervening streets to the lists
of residents in each street.
Although the directories now begin to be uniform
in appearance, the value of the appendices for his-
torical purposes is not diminished. In 1832 there
is a full account of the opening of the Liverpool
and Manchester Railway, and also of the death and
funeral of William Huskisson. In 1837 there is
a full description of the Boundaries of Liverpool
under the Reform Bill, and of each ward un^er
the Municipal Corporation Bill, while in the direc-
tory for 1853 is given the Boundaries of the Port of
Liverpool, as defined in 1680 and 1723.
In the issue for 1835 there is an advertisement
of Leasowe Castle as an Hotel and Summer
Residence, Louis Bussard, Proprietor. At a later
date this Castle became a private residence, and a
few years ago was again turned into an hotel.
It is possible from these directories to trace the
rise and decline of the Stage Coach. In the appen-
dix to the edition for 1834 is the first notice of
** Railway Coaches," a quarter of a page being de-
voted to them, while the Mail and Stage Coaches
occupy a page and three quarters. The advertise-
ments in the issue for 1834 contain what must have
been the first time-table of the Liverpool & Man-
chester Railway. In 1837 was announced the open-
ing of the Grand Junction Railway — Liverpool to
132 Liverpool Directories
Birmingham. The advertisement gives the times
of the trains and the fares through to London, the
journey from Birmingham to London being con-
tinued by Stage Coaches. In 1839 appeared the
advertisement of the first Railway Train to London.
The list of Stage Coaches steadily diminished until
they disappeared early in the 'forties. But about
the time the Stage Coach disappeared the Omnibus
came into evidence, and the directory for 1841 con*-
tains a list of the suburban Omnibuses.
Students of the municipal, parochial, and eco-
nomic history of this city, as well as those interested
in the progress of its various religious, charitable,
literary, and educational institutions, will find that
the contents of the appendices and advertisements
in these directories will well repay careful examina-f
tion, and no portion of Liverpool history iii the
nineteenth century should be written without such
an examination being made. The greater part of
the information is official, and therefore reliable ; it
is well arranged and indexed, and readily acces-
sible, as long sets of these volumes are in our local
libraries.
If it be true that the history of Modern England
will be found in the newspapers, it is no exaggeration
to say that the history of the development of Liver-
pool will be found in the directories.
In conclusion, I desire to pay a tribute to the
memory of John Gore. He was but a young man
(aged 29) when he published the first directory in
1766, and the difficulties with which he had to con-
tend in the compilation of that book must have been
considerable, while its small sale must have been
very discouraging. He lived to see Gore's directory
thoroughly established, but I doubt if, at the date
of his death (1803), it could be regarded as a really
profitable publication. We have therefore the more
reason to admire the public spirit which, in his own
Liverpool Directories 133
words, made him ** anxious of contributing his mite
to the service of the community." In compiling
useful information for his contemporaries he pro-
vided historical records for posterity.
I hoped to place on record here some account
of this man, but I have not been able to obtain any
details of his life. Gore's General Advertiser for
December 22, 1803, contains only an ordinary
obituary notice, stating that he died **on the 14th
inst, in the 65th year of his age, after a long illness,
endured with exemplary patience and resignation!'
Some day I hope that more information will
be obtainable, for amongst the men who have ren-
dered valuable service to tliis city, the names of
few are more worthy of permanent record than is
that of John Gore, the originator of the Liverpool
Directory.

the author is stated to be " William Bailey." Mr. Mott did not give
his authority for the statement, and I have been unable to trace a

J. Mawdsley & Son, Liverpool. That collection contains a copy
of Gore's Directory for 1790, which lacks title, preliminary, and end
pages, but has a label bearing date 1789 pasted on the back. This
may easily have misled Boardman. In the Liverpool Library
(Lyceum) Catalogue (1889) there is an entry of a directory for 1789.
The directory is not in that Library now, nor is there any evidence in
the stock-books that the Library ever contained a copy. The entry in
the Catalogue is also inaccurate on other points. So far I have been
unable to find any reliable evidence that Gore published a directory
in 1789.
^ "The Liverpool Directory and Guide — Liverpool : sold by all the
Booksellers. 1794." With the kind assistance of Mr. A. H. Arkle I
have discovered that this directory was taken from " The Universal
British Directory of Trade, Commerce, and Manufacture, comprising
lists of Inhabitants of London . . . and of all the cities, &c. in Eng-
land & Wales. 5 V. 8vo. London [1794]." The preliminary matter,
which the publishers of the "Universal British Directory" had
apparently taken from Gore's " Directory" of 1790, was omitted, and
the short history of the town re-written. The volume was re-paged,
and a title-pa^e added. The name of neither the printer nor publisher
is given, but it has been ascribed to Charles Wosencroft, who pub-
lished a Liverpool Directory in 1790, but on what authority I am
unable to say. The copy in the Athenaeum Library is the only one
with the local title-page that I have seen.

THE REGISTERS OF ST. MARY^S,
BIRKENHEAD, 1721-1812
Transcribed by F. C Beazley
PREFACE
The Registers here printed consist of the two
earliest volumes, now in the possession of the
Incumbent and Churchwardens. The first volume
is a thin folio measuring \2\ by 7|^ inches, and is
bound in parchment ; the paper leaves of this book
are frail, and the edges much frayed. The second
volume is also a folio, and is bound in law calf.
The entries are very irregular, but it has been
thought best to present an exact copy of the
Registers, and to note here the years either miss-
ing or during which no ceremonies occurred. The
earliest Burial took place in 1719, and the earliest
Baptism and Marriage in 1721 : all three classes of
entries have been transcribed down to 181 2.
No entries occur during the following years : —
Baptisms.~i722, 1723, 1724, 1725, 1727, 1728, 1734, 1735,

164 Birkenhead Register
It is to be regretted that there are no transcripts
at Chester till 181 3, so that no comparison can be
made ; and it is therefore of additional importance
that a copy of the original record should be printed,
and so placed beyond risk of loss by fire and decay.
Of the places mentioned in the Registers calling
for notice, we have Toad- Hole, y* Grange, Hinderton
Lane, Birkenhead Hall, the Rock House, Derby
House, Bridge-end, New Building, Slush Lane,
Snuff Lane. And I am indebted to Mr. William
Fergusson Irvine, F.S.A., for the following in-
formation concerning these : —
Toad-Hole was the name of the farm which stood
about half-way along what is now Bailey Street,
between Park Road North and the eastern entrance
gates to Flaybrick Cemetery. The foundations
can (1906) still be seen a few yards to the north of
Bailey Street.
The Grange Farm, on the site of the old monas-
tic grange, stood in the area now enclosed by the
roads Alfred Road, Grange Mount, Euston Grove,
and Westbourne Road.
Hinderton Lane is probably now marked by
Chamberlain Street, near Green Lane Station,
Tranmere, and formerly led to a small knot of
cottages on the shore of the Mersey which formed
part of the hamlet of Hinderton.
Birkenhead Hall stood on the site of the schools
at the west side of Priory Street.
The Rock House was a farm standing a few
yards from the end of what is now Rock Ferry Pier.
Derby House still stands in Higher Bebington,
and is now the residence of T. W. Oakshott,
Esq.
Bridge End was the group of cottages which
stood where Bridge Street now crosses the rail-
way.
Slush Lane, or Snush Lane, was the road be-
Preface 165
tween the Halfway House at Prenton and Charing
Cross, and included part of what is now Wood-
church Road and the whole of Oxton Road.
Snuff Lane is possibly a corruption or misreading
of Snush Lane.
New Building I cannot identify.

INTRODUCTION
THE Registers here printed relate to the extra-
parochial chapelry of Birkenhead, and although
for the sake of clearness the title describes them as
the Registers of St. Mary's, Birkenhead, it is ques-
tionable whether this dedication was applied to this
chapel before the building of the present church in
1819.
Shortly after the Dissolution of the Monasteries,
a licence was granted^ for the performance of
Divine Service in the Chapter-House of the Priory
of Birkenhead, and the nomination of a lecturer or
curate was vested in the grantee of the Priory lands,
Ralph Worsley and his successors. There is evi-
dence that service was held here with more or less
regularity until the date of the beginning of the
Registers here printed. From that time until the
present Divine Service has been regularly per-
formed in this Chapel or in its successor, St. Mary s
Church.
In the payment of Ship Money by the Clergy
for the County of Chester, 1635, we find that
Charles Adams paid 5s. as the Curate of Birken-
head.^
Sir Peter Leycester in his Historical Antiquities
(1673) mentions ''Birkenhead Chappel " as a
chapel of ease in Bidston Parish, and adds that
it is *'now in decay.*'
^ Mortimer's Hundred of Wirral, p. 391. Mortimer gives no
authority, but there is nothing improbable in the statement.
^ Rec. Soc, vol. xii. p. 102.

Introduction 167
It may be here observed that Sir Peter Leycester
is wrong in describing it as in Bidston Parish. It
is probable that before the Priory was founded all
Birkenhead was in Bidston Parish, but, like many
monastic holdings, it became extra-parochial at an
early date, and so escaped all tithe, and this privi-
lege has survived to the present day, and it acknow-
ledged no superior Church.
The following extract from Bishop Gastrell's
Notitia (Chetham Soc, vol. viii. p. 156) will be of
interest : —
"Birkenhead,^ Extra-parochiall, subject to no Jurisd[iction,]
Spirituall or Temporall, payes no Tyths. The Manour-house
was a Priory, and the Chappell, part of it ; the present owner of
w*^^ is M^ Cleveland of Leverpool,^ who allows y® Curate of
Bedston 8^ p.[er] an[nuin,] for w*^^ he reads prayers and preaches
ev.[ery] Sund.fay] except y® first Sund.[ay] in y® month.
" Pens. [ion] i^ 4''- 6^* paid by Receiver to [the] Prince of Wales
in B.[ishop] Bridg^^ time.
** Here was a Priory, v.[ide] Mon, Sup, v.[ide] also S' John's
Hospital, Little St John's, Charities, p. 103."^
The district served by this chapelry was the
original lordship of Birkenhead,^ which had formed
part of the possessions of the Priory of St. James,
and probably included the lost manor of Wooton
or Woolton, which seems to have occupied the
north-western corner of the chapelry, including the
district now known as Flaybrick and Gillbrook.
The boundary of Birkenhead ran from the middle
of Tranmere Pool up the stream which formerly
flowed down the valley now occupied roughly by
Borough Road, turned at a sharp angle, and ran in
* Dedicated to St. Mary. Value in 1834, ;fi53. Registers begin
in 1719.
' Part of this Priory is now furnished and used as a chapel, being
a Perpetual Curacy in the gift of Francis Richard Price, Esq., de-
scended from John Clieveland, Esq., M.P., who bought the manor of
Birkenhead, and died in 17 16.
• The last references are in another handwriting, apparently Mr.
Speed's, the Deputy Registrar of the Diocese.

a westerly direction between what are now Briar-
dale and Carlton Roads, up Bennett's Hill to the
corner of Bessborough Road. At this point the
boundary turned and ran in a northerly direction
along Slatey Road to Park Road South, then zig-
zagged across the Park to a point on the Gill Brook
about 400 yards from Wallasey Pool (now the Great
Float). Turning here sharp to the west, it ran up
the Gill Brook to Toad- Hole Farm, through the
buildings of which it passed. Continuing in a
southerly direction for about 350 yards, it reached
Upton Road. Here it again turned towards the
west and joined what is now Boundary Road, and
after a turn to the east reached Wallasey Pool a
little to the east of the Halfpenny Bridge.
Although this is the full lordship of Birkenhead,
it probably contains two areas which should not
strictly be included, viz. the hamlet of Grange on
the Claughton and Tranmere boundary, and the
hamlet, already referred to, of Woolton, lying
between the Gill Brook and the Bidston boundary.

REPORT FOR 1906
Presented 24TH January 1907
TOURING the year fourteen new members, paying ;^i, is.
^^ each, have joined the Society, and eighteen non-resident
members have kindly consented to increase their subscriptions
from IDS. 6d. to ;;^i, is. per annum. The Council deeply regret
to record the death of Mr. J. Kerfoot Jones, for many years a
member of this Society. Four resident and five non-resident
members have resigned, or have been removed from the list of
members by the Council under the rules of the Society, The
net financial gain to the Society is ;^i6, i6s. 6d. The number
of resident members is now 162, non-resident 53, and life-
members 17.
At the Annual Meeting held on the ist February last, Mr.
R. D. Radcliffe, M.A., F.S.A., who was Hon. Secretary from
1884 until 1903, was unanimously elected a Vice-President of
the Society.
Nine meetings have been held during the year, at each of
which a paper has been read dealing with some local subject:
the Council are glad to notice that the attendance of members
continues good. The Council have to record their appreciation
of a generous donation from a member, Mr. Cedric Boult, who
on the 15th March last presented to the library of the Society
eighteen portfolios containing documents relating to the founda-
tion and early years of the Society, from the collection of the
late Mr. Joseph Mayer. Two excursions took place during the
summer, and were well attended. Volume 57 of the Society's
Proceedings was issued to members on the i6th day of May last.
The Council desire to make a special appeal to members to
bring the Society to the notice of their friends and to induce
336
Report, &c.
237
them to join. The work of the Society is greatly hampered
owing to the want of funds, and the Council feel sure that if this
were only realised it would result in a large accession to the list
of members. Enclosed will be found two forms of proposal of
New Members, and the Council trust these will be returned to
the Hon. Secretary duly filled up.

NOTE
This Index was begun under the auspices of the Congress of Archaaological
Societies in union with the Society of Antiquaries. Its success being assured,
the Congress have placed it in the hands of the publishers to continue
yearly.
The value of the Index to archaeologists is now recognized. Every effort
is made to keep its contents up to date and continuous, but it is obvious that
the difficulties are great unless the assistance of the societies is obtained. If
for any reason the papers of a society are not indexed in the year to which
they properly belong, the plan is to include them in the following year ; and
whenever the papers of societies are brought into the Index for the first time
they €ire then indexed from the year 1891.
By this plan it will be seen that the year 1891 is treated as the commencing
year for the Index, and that all transactions published in and since that year
will find their place in the series.
To make this work complete an index of the transactions from the begin-
ning of €u:ch3eological societies down to the year 1890 is needed. This work
is now going through the press.
Societies will greatly oblige by conununicating any omissions or sugges-
tions to the editor, c/o Auchibald Constable & Co., Ltd., 16 James Street,
Haymarket, London.
Single copies of the yearly Index from 1891 may be obtained. Many of
the Societies in union with the Society of Antiquaries take a sufficient number
of copies of the yearly Index to issue with their transactions to each of their
members. The more this plan is extended the less will be the cost of the
Index to each society.
The subscription list for the complete Index up to 1890 is still open, and
intending subscribers should apply at once to Messrs. Archibald Constable
& Co.
