WENLOCK.

OR MUCH WENLOCK, is an ancient borough, both corporate and parliamentary, a market town and parish, and the head of a liberty, having separate jurisdiction; 148 miles N.W. from London, and 12 S.E. from Shrewsbury. The town, which is situated on the Phobrook, and in a pleasant vale, is of considerable antiquity. The British name was _Llan Melien_, or ‘Saint Milburgh’s Church;’ and in the Monasticon it is denominated _Winnica_, or ‘the windy place.’ Its early importance originated with the establishment of a convent, about 680, by Melburga, daughter of king Merwald. Having been destroyed by the Danes, it was restored by the Earl of Mercia, after which it fell into decay. Soon after the Conquest it was rebuilt by Roger de Montgomery, and converted into a priory for Cluniac monks. The ruins are on the south side of the town; they are extensive, and present the most finished specimens of Norman architecture, together with the early and decorated English styles. Of the church, the south transept is in the most perfect state, three beautiful Norman arches, and two of the cloisters remain in good preservation. This establishment must have been extensive, and its buildings magnificent. The town consists principally of two narrow streets, some of the houses forming which are modern and respectable in appearance, and others but poorly built. The guildhall, more remarkable for its antiquity than its external beauty, is constructed of timber frame-work, resting on piazzas. This building underwent in 1849, restoration with great taste and skill, at the expense of the corporation. Two charters have been granted to this ancient borough; the first in the eighth of Edward IV, at the request of Sir John Wenlock, Knight, ‘in consideration of laudable and acceptable services performed by the liege men of the town of Wenlock.’ The second charter was granted in the reign of Charles I. Under the Municipal Reform Act, the corporate body consists of a mayor, two aldermen and six councillors. The borough is divided into three wards—namely, Wenlock Ward, Broseley Ward, and Madeley Ward. Sessions are held quarterly in the guildhall, before the recorder, and the magistrates meet here in petty sessions every sixth Tuesday. The Madeley circuit of the new County Court, includes Wenlock in its jurisdiction; the court sits monthly at the former town, and takes cognizance of debts and claims to any amount not exceeding £50. Sir Watkin Williams Wynn, Bart., is lord of the manor, and holds, by his agent, courts leet and baron, in the months of May and October. The elective franchise was conferred upon the burgesses by Edward IV, with the privilege of returning one member—the borough now sends two; those returned at the general election in 1852, were the Honble. George Cecil Weld Forester, Willey Park, Salop; and James Milnes Gaskell, Esq. Thornes House, Wakefield, Yorkshire (both re-elected). The Boundary Act defines the limits of the borough to comprise ‘the old borough of Wenlock:’ by the same act the town is appointed a polling station at the election of members to represent North Salop. In the time of Richard II, this place was noted for copper mines, and lime quarries: the former have ceased to be wrought, but the latter are still productive, and in the town are two maltings and a tannery.

The places of worship are the parish church of the Holy Trinity, and a chapel for Wesleyan Methodists. The former is a venerable structure, with a square tower surmounted by a spire; it partakes, in a remote degree, of the style of the abbey, being partly of the Norman and partly of the decorated English: the living is a discharged vicarage, with the perpetual curacies of Burton and Benthall annexed, in the gift of the lord of the manor; the Rev. William Henry Wayne, is the present incumbent, and the Rev. Nathaniel Haywood, curate. The principal charities consist of a free school, originally endowed in 1778, by the Rev. Francis Southern; and almshouses for four poor widows. There is a reading room in connection with a well-selected library, to which, also is attached, a museum, formed to illustrate the natural history and antiquities of Wenlock and its neighbourhood. The market is held on Monday; and the fairs, on the second Monday in March, and May 12th, for horned cattle, horses and sheep, and for hiring servants; July 5th, for sheep and October 17th, and December 4th, for cattle of all kinds. The parish of Much Wenlock contained, by the government returns for 1841, 2,487 inhabitants, and in 1851, 2,398.

WHITCHURCH, WITH DODINGTON, TILSTOCK AND NEIGHBOURHOODS.

WHITCHURCH is a parish, chiefly in the hundred of Bradford (North), and extending into that of Nantwich, in the county of Chester—the town is 161 miles N.W. by N. from London, situated on the main road between Shrewsbury and Chester, 20 miles from each of the latter places: it is seated on elevated ground, in a rich and picturesque country; and contains some neat streets and respectable dwellings. An intended railway from Crewe to Shrewsbury will include Whitchurch in its route. The town was anciently called _Album Monasterium_ and _Blancminster_, which have the same meaning (Whitechurch) and appear to imply the seat of a monastery, of which there are no remains; but a hospital was standing here in the reign of Henry III. and was endowed by the lord of the manor with the whole town of Wilnecot, for the relief of the poor at its gate. Of the foundation and history of the ancient castle—fragments of which were visible in 1760, nothing is known. At the commencement of the civil war between Charles and his parliament, the inhabitants of Whitchurch declared in favour of the monarch, and promptly raised a regiment in support of his cause. An iron and brass foundry, a good brewery, and several roperies, are on a respectable scale, but malting may be considered the principal, if not the staple branch. The Ellesmere canal comes close to the centre of the town, and in its vicinity are several brooks—one of which, called Red Brook, is the boundary between England and Wales, and another separates this county from Cheshire. A high steward who superintends the affairs of the town, is appointed by the lord of the manor (Earl of Brownlow), and presides at courts baron and leet, held in October, in the town hall, which is the depository for the rolls and archives of the lordship. Whitchurch is included in the twenty-seventh circuit of County Court towns under the acts for the recovery of debts not exceeding £50. and it is a polling station at the election of members to represent North Salop.

That which principally engages the notice of a traveller, in this town, is its fine church of Saint Mary (or as some assert Saint Alkmund)—a noble structure of the Tuscan order, erected in 1722 on the spot where an old Gothic one formerly stood. The whole edifice is built of fine freestone; and at the west end is a stately square tower, in which are eight good bells. The entire building is very regular, consisting of a large nave, with side aisles, and contains several ancient monuments; among these is one to the memory of the great John Talbot, the first Earl of Shrewsbury, who was called the English Achilles, and so renowned in France, that no man in that kingdom dared to encounter him single-handed. Another effigy represents Christopher Talbot, fourth son of John Talbot, second Earl of Shrewsbury, who was rector of Whitchurch and archdeacon of Chester. The living—one of the richest in the county, is in the presentation of the lord of the manor. The present rector is the Rev. William Henry Egerton, M.A. The other places of worship are for Baptists, Independents, and Methodists. The free grammar school here was founded in the reign of Edward VI. by Sir John Talbot, rector of this parish, aided by contributions of the inhabitants. It has been lately rebuilt, in the Elizabethan style, and is now a handsome structure. A large national school for boys, and another for girls; a British school; an almshouse for its decayed housekeepers, and the union workhouse, situated at Derr Moss, are the other principal charities. The country round here is fertile, and in an excellent state of agriculture. The views, especially towards the Welch and Derby hills, are very fine; and the nearer prospect is enriched with two lakes, called Blake-mere and Horse-mere. The market is held on Friday; and the fairs on the second Friday in April, Whit-Monday, and the first Friday after the 2nd of August, October 28th, and December 1st, for sheep, cattle, &c. The parish of Whitchurch (not including the township of Wirsall, county of Chester), contained in 1841, 6,285 inhabitants, and in 1851, 5,977.

The township of DODINGTON adjoins Whitchurch, and its population is returned therewith. It has a chapel of ease to Whitchurch and a very handsome one for Independents.

TILSTOCK, a chapelry to Whitchurch, is between two and three miles from that town. It contains a neat chapel of ease, erected in 1834, one for Wesleyan Methodists, and a national school. Population returned with the parish.
