Andrew Simpson: Always have a bit of fun with the past .......... a 400 year old story, the Beech Band and 1066
https://chorltonhistory.blogspot.com/2015/05/always-have-bit-of-fun-with-past-400.html
Stories, people and events. Saturday, 23 May 2015. Always have a bit of fun with the past . a 400 year old story, the Beech Band and 1066. Now I have always liked my history with a dash of fun. The Beech Band and the book, May 2015. I fell across Horrible Histories when they first came out and fondly remember that much earlier lampoon of all things historical which was 1066 and All That. And that was the book launch at the Lloyds which drew attention to Hough End Hall The Story. And last Saturday evening...
Andrew Simpson: May 2015
https://chorltonhistory.blogspot.com/2015_05_01_archive.html
Stories, people and events. Sunday, 31 May 2015. Rediscovering our rural past, Thomas Ellwood and Mrs W C Williamson. We owe a great debt to the historians of the late 19th century who captured the memories of the people who lived in south Manchester when most of it was still countryside. Thomas Ellwood and Mrs Williamson were working at a time when the rural communities of Chorlton, Burnage, Fallowfield and Rusholme were on the cusp of disappearing. In the case of Mrs Williamson her work appeared in a s...
Andrew Simpson: Lost images of Whalley Range part 10............ the Imperial at Brooks's Bar
https://chorltonhistory.blogspot.com/2015/05/lost-images-of-whalley-range-part-10.html
Stories, people and events. Saturday, 23 May 2015. Lost images of Whalley Range part 10. the Imperial at Brooks's Bar. There will be those who mutter darkly that the Imperial was not in Whalley Range, but I bet plenty of people will have crossed over the road and spent time there. And as the smaller picture houses around Whalley Range closed this was an obvious local choice with that added attraction that if you were old enough there was the Whalley Hotel for afterwards. Now I have written about. The Sto...
Andrew Simpson: Stepping back and looking at the work of a charity for children in 1890 ............ another story from the Together Trust
https://chorltonhistory.blogspot.com/2015/05/stepping-back-and-looking-at-work-of.html
Stories, people and events. Friday, 22 May 2015. Stepping back and looking at the work of a charity for children in 1890 . another story from the Together Trust. The Christian Worker, news and more. I am fascinated at how those charities involved in helping young people during the 19th and 20th centuries worked and in particular the methods they employed to raise funds and awareness of what they were doing. So this week’s post from the Together Trust. Is a timely contribution to my understanding.*. Like ...
Andrew Simpson: The story behind that path in Chorlton Park ............ discovering Sir Nicholas Mosley's grand drive
https://chorltonhistory.blogspot.com/2015/05/the-story-behind-that-path-in-chorlton.html
Stories, people and events. Wednesday, 20 May 2015. The story behind that path in Chorlton Park . discovering Sir Nicholas Mosley's grand drive. Walking towards the Hall. 2015. I must have walked this route countless times and never made the connection with that 400 year old house which sits away in the distance. The house is Hough End Hall and we are in Chorlton Park. Old maps show what will once have been a grand drive up from Barlow Moor Road to the hall. Now I grant you that this discovery may not ra...

Andrew Simpson
Stories, people and events. Thursday, 22 March 2018. A little bit of Eltham in the stories of Edith Nesbit, writer, socialist and resident at Well Hall House. The old Woolwich Road, 1909. Now I have set myself the task of reading the stories of Edith Nesbit and looking for Eltham. She lived in Well Hall House from the late 19th century into the 20th and those in the know reckon they can spot the references. And before someone mutters “he clearly needs to get out more,”. Well Hall House, date unknown.
