Geology

The drainage of Frodsham is into the River Weaver to the north and the River Mersey to the south. The bedrock is rock from the Sherwood sandstone group.[3] In the Tertiary period, there was an uplift at the Overton and Frodsham faults which resulted in the outcrop of Overton Hill. The uplift resulted in trapping the water table at an elevation of around 200 feet (61 m) at which level springs developed.[4] The drift consists of recent alluvium.[3] Bedrock is the native consolidated rock underlying the Earths surface. ...

History

Etymology

The name derives from the Old English personal name of Frod, and ham which means a village or homestead; hence Frod's village. Frodsham is unique as the name of a settlement in the British Isles. Earlier spellings of the name have included Fradsham, Frandsham, Frodisham, Ffradsam, Ffrodesham and Ffradsham.[10] Old English (also called Anglo-Saxon[1], Old English: ) is an early form of the English language that was spoken in parts of what is now England and southern Scotland between the mid-fifth century and the mid-twelfth century. ...


Early history

The town is of Saxon origin; its 11th century church is mentioned in the Domesday Book. In the thirteenth century the church was home to a holy woman recluse (hermit) called Wymark, who was well-known enough to be paid an annual pension from the royal exchequer. Frodsham was an important manor of the medieval earls of Chester, and was created a borough in the early thirteenth century probably by Earl Ranulf III. The mouth of the river Weaver, where it joins the Mersey, made Frodsham into a significant port for the coasting trade, particularly for the export of Cheshire salt, brought down the river from Northwich and Nantwich. The site of the manor-house was in Castle Park; the building was of stone and was fortified. In an account of 1315 it is called 'castellum' (little castle), although 'manerium' (manor-house) was the usual designation.

Frodsham was the headquarters of Runcorn Rural District Council.
