GRAPPENHALL (4003 words)
Grappenhall has always been noted for its stained glass but the Boydell medieval window is extremely precious.
It is possible to picture Grappenhall with the pigs that feed upon the acorns in its forest and the serfs and villein who tend them, but of Edward and Dot we hear no more.
It is possible that the Grappenhall yew may have given shelter to the William Boydell who rode away in chain armour to fight the Saracens in the far-off days of the thirteenth century.
All Saints' Church - Thelwall (406 words)
The legal suit arose out of an unwillingness on the part of Thelwall to pay towards the repair of Runcom Church and the Daresbury Chapel; Thelwall being in the chapelry of Daresbury and the Parish of Runcorn.
Johannes Lawrenson de Thelwall, a linen weaver, stated that he could remember three different ministers being hired to serve the Chapel and that it had been in a ruinous state for some time until it was repaired and made fit for worship again by Robert Pickering.
The dispute was settled in an agreement dated 28th August 1663 by which time the Churchwardens of Daresbury bound themselves to accept the sum of 24 shillings yearly from the inhabitants of Thelwall in discharge of all future repairs to the mother Church at Runcom or the Parochial Chapel of Daresbury.
