still remains.

Hall, the seat of the Right Hon. Lord Howard of Glossop, is a noble
building, in the style of a French château of the 18th century,
and stands on gently rising ground above Howard Town, surrounded by
trees: it was much enlarged
and improved by Henry Charles, 13th Duke of Norfolk, grandfather of
the present owner. The town and hamlets now comprising the manor of
Glossop appears to have been divided in the time of Edward the
Confessor into several parts among different Saxon proprietors, but
in the Domesday Survey the whole of Glossop is put down as forfeited
to the Crown; and the Conqueror afterwards gave it to his natural
son, William Peveril, whose son Richard, however, being disinherited
by Henry I. Glossop was again confiscated to the Crown, and in 1157
was granted by Henry II. together with the advowson of the church to
the Abbey of Basingwerke, "in free and perpetual alms for ever,"
and this abbey had acquired before the 15th century nearly all the
hamlets now comprising the Glossop estate; Glossop remained the
property of Basingwerke Abbey till the dissolution of the lesser
abbeys in 1536, when Henry VIII. seized it with other conventual
property and afterwards granted it to the Earl of Shrewsbury, who in
turn exchanged it with the Duke of Norfolk for estates in Ireland,
and in this noble family it has remained to the present time; the
present proprietor, lord of the manor and principal landowner, is the
Right Hon. Lord Howard of Glossop J.P. cousin to the present Duke of
Norfolk.

HAYFIELD
HAYFIELD is a
township and parish, formed in 1837 from that of Glossop and
consisting of the hamlets of Great Hamlet, Phoside and Kinder, in the
High Peak division of the county, Glossop county court district,
hundred of High Peak, petty sessional division of Chapel-en-le-Frith,
Hayfield union, rural deanery of Glossop, archdeaconry of Derby and
diocese of Southwell. Hayfield is the terminus of a branch line from
New Mills on the Manchester, Sheffield and Lincolnshire railway, 5
miles south from Glossop station, 4 north from Chapel-en-le-Frith, 18
from Manchester, 10 from Buxton, 3 from New Mills and 11 south east
from Stockport: the village, built of stone, has a scattered and
bleak appearance, and is about 622 feet above the sea-level, standing
on the banks of the Sett, a rapid mountain stream which rises on the
western slopes of the Peak. The church of St. Matthew, situated
between the Kinder stream and Phoside volley, was originally erected
in 1386, and rebuilt in 1818 at a cost of £2,000, and is an
edifice of stone in the Early English style, consisting of chancel,
nave, aisles, south porch and an embattled western tower with
pinnacles, containing a clock and 6 bells: the tower was rebuilt in
1894: there is a monument with bust, by Bacon, to the late Joseph
Hague esq. of Park Hall, d. 1786, and others to the Rev. John Badley,
curate of Hayfield (1764), and to the Rev. George Buckley Bower B.D.
rector of Great Billing, Northants, and archdeacon of Richmond, Yorks
(1800): the stained east window was erected in December, 1879, by
Mrs, Bennett, of Birch House, in memory of her husband; and there are
others to the late Levi and Elijah Hall, Mrs. Hall, of Moorlands, and
the late Wright Turner esq. (1881): the brass Eagle lectern was
presented in 1891 by the present incumbent, at a cost of £100,
as a memorial to his late wife, who died in 1890: the church affords
850 sittings, 50 being free: an additional burying ground of 1 acre
was bought by a rate and consecrated in 1862 : the Rev. John Wesley
visited Hayfield and preached in the church in 1755 during the
incumbency of Mr. Badley. The register dates from the year 1622. The
living is a perpetual curacy, net yearly value £180, in the
gift of the resident freeholders, and held
since 1877 by the Rev. Ricketts Raymond Ricketts, of St. Bees: a
parsonage house was erected in 1869, at a cost of £1,200. There
are Wesleyan, Primitive Methodist and United Methodist
chapels, and Liberal and Conservative clubs. The facilities for
manufacture, owing to the abundance of water, are very considerable,
and two extensive calico-printing works are carried on, besides the
print works at Birch Vale, a mile south: there are also two paper
mills at Bank Vale, and cotton mill at Little Hayfield: formerly a
good deal of twine, locally known as "bant," was made here:
twice a year a shepherds' meeting is held, when the various sheep
marks are agreed upon and strayed sheep exchanged: fairs for cattle
are held here May 12th and October 10th. The charities amount to £23
yearly for clothing, chiefly by the gift of the late Joseph Hague
esq. of Park Hall (1778): prior to 1820 the poor had a right of
turfery on "Old Pits," a plot of 40 acres on Leygate Moor.
Due south of Hayfield lies Chinley Tor, a steep and rugged mountain,
1,493 feet high, commanding fine views over the valley of the Goyt
and the adjacent summit of Eccles Pike (1,225 feet) southwards; to
the west lie Whaley Moor (1,347 feet) and Sponds Hill (1,357 feet);
northwards there is an extensive prospect over Disley, Poynton Park
and the plains of Cheshire: this district is believed to have been at
one time in Roman occupation, and some coins of the 8th century have
been found on the Doctor's road, near Bowden Bridge, one part of
which road was paved: previously to 1830, the flat piece of ground
near the Kinder Print Works was common land, and known as "Cutlers'
Green," cutlery having, it is said, been made here before its
manufacture was known in Sheffield; halfway between this spot and
Hayfield is the Whitworth well, famous for its curative properties.
The village, from its peculiar situation, has always been liable to
floods, one of which, in 1748, destroyed some lives, several water
mills and part of the churchyard; in August, 1799, the bridge was
washed away, and in 1809 a number of buildings; again, on the 16th
June, 1858, the torrent tore up the mill weir and carried away the
backs of four houses abutting on the stream. By an ancient custom
Hayfield had the privilege of electing a mayor, an office which the
late John Hobson esq. filled for thirty years: Joseph Bowden esq. was
elected mayor of Hayfield in 1844. Park Hall, the residence of
Francis William Ashton esq. 1 mile north of Hayfield, was formerly
the abode of the late Joseph Hague, a generous benefactor to this
neighbourhood: he began life by selling small articles from a basket,
and subsequently went to London, where in course of time he became an
opulent merchant; he died at Park Hall on the 12th March, 1786, and
was buried at Glossop. The Duke of Devonshire K.G., P.C. is lord of
the manor; F. J. Sumner esq. and James Watts are the principal
landowners. The area of the township is 7,920 acres, and of the
parish 11,309 acres; rateable value, £13,356; the population of
the township of Hayfield in 1891 was 2,856.
