More about this scene

Embowered in trees, this modest building typical of the Baptist faith stands on land mentioned in the Domesday Book. Inskip-with-Sowerby has had links with local families (Butlers, Cliftons, Molyneux, de Carletons, even William Cavendish of Devonshire, who was given Inskip as a dowry from his wife). Inskip Church, St Peter's, was built in 1848. Part of the Goosnargh rentals were given by Thomas Knowles to the poor of Inskip.

I have lived in Inskip most of my life, it is a nice little village that has changed very little in the past 32 years of my life. My parents have lived in Inskip over 30 years and my nanna a lot longer. The changes I have noticed are a few more houses, the loss of our shop and post office, and HMS Inskip has changed hands.
