the “Local Government Act, 1894,” comprised the hamlets
of GIossop, Hadfield, Padfield, Charlesworth, Chunal, Whitfield and
Simmondley. By the operation of the above Act, the borough became, by
an Order of the County Council, dated Aug. 10, 1894, a civil parish,
consisting of the whole of the hamlet of Hadfield, and parts of the
previously mentioned hamlets. By the same Act the hamlet of
Charlesworth, and the other parts of the hamlets, became the parish
of Charlesworth.
The borough is divided
into three wards, viz.; All Saints, Hadfield and St. James'. The
corporation consists of a mayor, 6 aldermen and 18 councillors. The
borough has a commission of the peace and a police force. The water
supply, derived from Peaknase moors, is collected in reservoirs at
Swineshaw. The town is supplied with gas by a company formed in 1845.
Portions of the old
parish of Glossop All Saints have been taken to form the
ecclesiastical parishes of Whitfield, St. James’; Hadfield, St.

nave, aisles, south porch, vestry, organ chamber, erected in 1877,
and a western tower, with spire, containing a clock and 8 bells,
re-hung and a chiming apparatus attached in 1877, at a cost of £180;

to a late Duke and Duchess of Norfolk, Robert Shepley esq. and John
Wood esq. former benefactors: the old church plate bears date 1745,

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.

south porch and an embattled western tower with pinnacles, containing
a clock and 6 bells: the tower was rebuilt in 1894, and in 1898 the
chancel was enlarged and decorated at a cost of £80: 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 Dec. 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 font, of Caen stone, is a
memorial to Henry Clement Bain Walker, d. 1893, and was presented in
March, 1899, by his father, Thomas Bain Walker esq. H.M. consul at
Honolulu, Sandwich Islands: a brass ewer has been given by Miss B. E.
E. Walker, and a new pulpit by C. Bennett esq. at a cost of £100:
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 1864, 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, now (1899) unoccupied, 1 mile north
from 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 E.G., P.C. is lord of the manor; Francis J. Sumner esq. of
Eathorpe Park, Leamington, Warwick, and James Watts are the principal
landowners. The area of the township is 7,892 acres of land and 28 of
water; rateable value, £13,886; the population of the township
of Hayfield in 1891 was 2,856.

CHINLEY, BUGSWORTH and
BROWNSIDE form a township in the ancient parish of Glossop (the three
places being united for poor rates), in the High Peak division of the
county, High Peak hundred and Chapel-en-le-Frith petty sessional
division, union and county court district.
CHINLEY is 2 miles
north from Chapel-en-le-Frith, with station for passenger and goods
traffic on the Midland railway, 172 miles from London. The Dore and
Chinley branch of the Midland railway, constructed in 1894, and
including a fine viaduct, joins the Ambergate and Manchester branch
here. Here is an endowed Congregational chapel and Sunday school, the
school receiving one half of the rents and profits arising from the
Town Hall of Chapel-en-le-Frith, through the will of the late Thomas
Slack esq. M.D. Here are also bleaching, sheet wadding and cotton
wool mills.
BUGSWORTH is 9 miles
south from Glossop, 3 west- north-west from Chapel-en-le-Frith, 9
north-north-west from Buxton and 168 by road from London and 173 by
rail, on the borders of Cheshire and divided from that county by the
river Goyt, which is here crossed by a stone bridge. The Midland
railway has a station here, and parcels by passenger trains addressed
to residents in this township should be forwarded by that line and
not via Whaley Bridge. Here also is the terminus of the Peak Forest
canal, running to Manchester, Macclesfield, Staffordshire,
Huddersfield and Wakefield. The Peak Forest Tramway also commences
here, terminating at Dove Holes, and is used for carrying mineral
produce and goods in conjunction with the canal. St. James’
church, built in 1874 at a cost of £1,500, is a building in a
modern Romanesque style, and consisting of apsidal chancel, nave of
three bays and a bell-cot containing one bell: the church will seat
about 200 people, and is under the control of the Rev. Adam Pyle
Hamilton-Wilson. vicar of Glossop; the Rev. James Bower, of St.
Aidan’s. has been curate-in-charge since 1885. A burial ground
was consecrated here in 1879, the land being conveyed to special
diocesan trustees for interments according to the rites of the Church
of England only. There is » Primitive Methodist chapel here,
built in 1876, and seating 200; the Congregationalists hold services
in a public schoolroom. Large quantities of lime and grit stone are
obtained from the local quarries, which are extensively worked: there
is also a colliery and a lime kiln. Lord Howard of Glossop is lord of
the manor of Bugsworth.
BROWNSIDE is 2 miles
east from Chinley and 1½ north from Chapel-en-le-Frith. The
land is held by numerous small owners. The soil is a dark loam;
subsoil, grit stone. The land is chiefly used for grazing purposes.
The area is 3,817 acres of land and 14 of water; rateable value,
£12,500; the population in 1891 was 1,542.

MELLOR, is a township,
chapelry and parish, 2 miles east from Marple station on the
Ambergate and Manchester section of the Midland railway, 8 miles
south-south-west from Glossop, 7 north-east from Stockport, 9 west
from Chapel-en-le-Frith and 173 from London by road and 177 by

a building of stone in the Perpendicular style, consisting of
chancel, nave, south porch and a western embattled tower with
pinnacles containing 3 bells and a clock, the first and third of
which are dated respectively 1639 and 1615: there is a stone font of
very early date and an oak pulpit, both curiously carved: there are
several stained windows, including memorials to Mr. Pearson, of
Stockport, Edith Jane Bagnall and Jonas Craven esq, J.P.: the church
was restored during the period 1873-91, at a cost of about £800,
and affords 600 sittings: in the churchyard is a gravestone recording
the deaths of a man and his five wives. The register of baptisms
dates from the year 1629. The living is a vicarage, net yearly value
£150, including 41 acres of glebe, in the gift of and held
since 1859 by the Rev. Thomas Matthew Freeman, Lic. Theol of Durham
University and surrogate. A charity of £7 5 s. yearly, left in
1818 by the Rev. Francis Gisborne, formerly rector of Staveley, and
Stafford’s charity of 29s. yearly, are for clothing. There is a
Primitive Methodist chapel, built in 1827, and a Free Methodist
chapel, built in 1850. Cotton spinning and bleaching are carried on
in the neighbourhood, but the collieries are not now worked. The
principal landowners are Frederic Chariest Arkwright esq. of
Willersley, Matlock, the trustees of the late John Craven esq. of
Mellor Hall, who are lords of the manor, Jonathan Jowett esq. of
Lower Hall and Ralph Wood esq. The soil is various; subsoil,
gritstone. The chief crops are hay and the land is in pasture. The

NEW MILLS, originally
called “Bowden Middle Cale,” derives its present name
from a corn mill built upon the Kinder, in the hamlet of Ollerset; it
is a township and parish, formed in 1884 from Glossop parish, and
comprising the hamlets of Beard, Ollerset, Thornset and Whitle, in
the High Peak division of the county, hundred of High Peak, Hayfield
union, Chapel-en-le-Frith petty sessional division and county court
district, rural deanery of Glossop, archdeaconry of Derby and diocese
of Southwell. It formerly comprised seven hamlets, but has been
divided, three of the hamlets being attached to Hayfield, and the
remaining four now forming the township and parish. New Mills is a
large village, on the river Goyt, 7½ miles south-west from
Glossop, 8 south-east from Stockport, 170 from London by road, and by
railway, St. Pancras 173, Euston 192 miles. The London and North
Western and Midland railways have stations here, and there is a
branch line from the latter to Hayfield.
It was under the
control of a Local Board from 1875, but under the provisions of the
“Local Government Act, 1894” (56 and 57 Vict. c. 73), an
urban district council is now the governing authority. The urban
district comprises the new parish of Newtown, formed from Disley in
Cheshire under the provisions of the “Local Government Act,
1894.”
The church of St.
George, locally in the township of Beard, was erected in 1831, and is
a building of stone, in the Pointed style, consisting of chancel,
nave, aisles, south and west porches, and an embattled western tower
with pinnacles and spire, containing 6 bells, presented in 1898 by
James Hibbert esq. J.P.; the stained east window was presented by
Mrs. John Mackie; and there are several other memorial windows, also
a monument to James Ingham esq. J.P. (1868), and a brass to his widow
(Sept. 1875) : the font is a memorial to John Taylor esq. J.P. and
the lectern was given by the parishioners, as a memorial to the wife
of the present vicar: the church was renovated in 1897 and affords
850 sittings, 330 being free. The register dates from the year 1831
and. is in good condition. The living is a vicarage, net yearly value
£300, with residence, in the gift of the vicar of Glossop, and
held since 1869 by the Rev. Frederick William Newman M.A. of St.
Peter’s College, Cambridge. The church of St. James the Less, a
chapel of ease to St. George’s, a building in the Lancet style
of the 13th century, was erected in 1880-1, at a cost of £2,750,
by John Mackie esq. of Crigglestone, Yorks, and New Mills, and Mary,
his wife, together with the almshouses adjoining, as a memorial to
James Ingham esq. and Martha, his wife, the parents of Mrs. Mackie,
formerly resident at New Mills, and consists of apsidal chancel and
nave, north porch, organ chamber and vestry, and western turret
containing one bell: in the apse are three stained windows and at the
west end is a stained window presented by Mr. and Mrs. Mackie: the
pulpit and font are of carved stone: the communion plate and linen
were given by the parishioners and the brass lectern by the late R.
B. Mackie esq. M.P. and his daughter Edith: there are 150 sittings.
The Catholic church, dedicated to St. Mary, and erected in 1846, is a
building of stone, in the Early English style consisting of chancel,
nave, aisles, and a western tower with spire, containing one bell: an
altar has been erected by Dennis Lane esq. of London. The Wesleyan
chapel, St. George’s road, was erected about 1810, and has an
attached cemetery; the Primitive Methodist chapel, Spring Bank, was
built in 1876; and the Free Methodist chapel, Spring Bank, built in
1838, was rebuilt in 1892. The almshouses, six in number, erected
from the designs of Mr. W. Swinden Barber F.R.I.B.A. are built on
three sides of a quadrangular plot of land near Spring Bank, in New
Mills; the dwellings occupying the north and a portion of the east
side of a quadrangle, the west and south sides of which are
appropriated to the church; they are occupied by 11 poor and aged
persons, who receive a weekly allowance from Mrs. Mackie. The Public
Hall, erected in 1871, at a cost of £2,500, was opened in the
same year by the late Duke of Devonshire K.G., P.O.: a tower was
added in 1875, and a clock with chimes presented by the late Mrs.
Ingham, of Watford Villa: the lower rooms are divided into offices
and board room: the Savings Bank also occupies a room here, which is
open on Saturdays from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m.: the general management of
the building is now in the hands of the local authority. A county
court is held here alternately with Buxton and Chapel-en-le-Frith, on
Mondays. Cattle fairs are held on May 11th and October 7th. Here are
iron and brass foundries, calico printing and bleach works, cotton
spinning and cotton band manufactories. The drinking fountain in
front of the Public Hall was erected in 1892 as a memorial to John
Mackie esq. The late James Ingham esq. of Watford Villa, left £500
in 1868, the interest of which is applied to the education and
clothing of poor children in the township: Trickett’s charity
consists of the rent of a farm at Sparrowpit, near
Chapel-en-le-Frith, now (1899) let for £24 per year, which sum
is in part distributed in clothing to poor persons and also applied
to education of the children of the parish. The principal landowners
are Earl Egerton of Tatton and Francis John Sumner esq. of Park Hall,
Hayfield. The soil is clay; subsoil, clay. The area of the parish is
5,042 acres of land and 36 of water; rateable value, £23,684;
area of the Urban district, 5,205 acres; rateable value, £28,826;
the population in 1891 was parish, 5,498, and of the Urban district,
