More about this scene

Gawsworth Church dates mainly from the 15th century. In the chancel are the tombs of some of the Fytton family, including Sir Edward (1550-1606) who became Lord President of Munster, and Mary Fytton who was a maid of honour to Elizabeth I, but was soon disgraced following an affair with the Earl of Pembroke. She is also one of the contenders as the Dark Lady of Shakespeare's sonnets.

Sparked a Memory for you?

If this has sparked a memory, why not share it here?

It was a common site to see John Adshead cycling to work from Gawsworth New Hall to the Lonsdale & Adshead brewery on Park Green Macclesfield. There was a driver and car available at the house, but it was usually the bike that got John to work. The dogs ! No they were not running alongside the cycle, they were tucked into John's coat. The brewery was sold in 1950, about 10 years before this picture was taken.
