Tour of Deane Parish Church (Rev. Terry Clark)

Upcoming Visit - July 2025

7.30pm at Deane Parish Church
Thursday 24th July 2025

Guide: Rev. Terry Clark

Deane Church dates back to Saxon times with most of the current building dating back to 1452.  The oldest marked graves in the Churchyard date back to the 1620s.  We will have opportunity to view the history display at the church, which interweaves the 1000 years of Deane Church history with the 2000 years of Christian history. Terry will also point out some of the other historical features of the building including those related to George Marsh, and there will be an opportunity to ask questions.  Members should make their way into the church on arrival.

Crown Point and Thomasson Fold in Edgworth

We have recently been given a 1959 document titled 'Abstract of the title of BARLOW AND JONES LIMITED to freehold land and premises situate at Crown Point and Thomasson Fold in Edgworth in the County of Lancaster'.  The document is four pages of typed text plus a cover page, and recites earlier transactions going back to 1814.  The text is reproduced below.
