style of English architecture, with a lofty square tower in the centre,
wherein is a ring of eight bells: the east window is a fine composition
in the later style. The living is a vicarage, in the patronage of Lord
Alford; the present vicar is the Rev. John David Day. The other places
of worship are for Independents, and Primitive, Association, and Wesleyan
Methodists. The chapelries of COCKSHUT, DUDLASTON, and PENLEY (the
last-named in the county of Flint), belonging to this parish, are all
perpetual curacies. There are two schools for children of either sex,
conducted upon the National plan. Ellesmere is the centre of an Union
under the new Poor-Law, consisting of seventeen parishes, nine of which
are in Salop, and the remainder in Flintshire. The population of the
Union, at the last census, amounted to 15,226. The market is held on
Tuesday, and the fairs on the Tuesday after the 2nd of February, the
third Tuesday in April, Tuesday in Whitsun-week, the first Tuesday in
July, the last Tuesday in August, the first Tuesday in October, the third
Tuesday in November, and the first Tuesday in December. Ellesmere parish
contained (including the chapelries before mentioned), in 1841, 6,603
inhabitants, and in 1851, 6,940.

HALES OWEN (Worcestershire),
WITH THE VILLAGES OF CRADLEY, NETHEREND, AND NEIGHBOURHOODS.
HALES OWEN, (formerly in the county of Salop), in a market town and
parish—the latter insulated, separated from Shropshire, and entirely
surrounded by Staffordshire and Worcestershire, and extending into the
hundred of Haltshire, in the latter county, to which it was in 1844,
annexed by act of parliament; 117 miles N.W. from London, 11 S. by E.
from Wolverhampton, 5 S. by E. from Dudley, and 7 S.W. from Birmingham,
and 5 from Stourbridge—the last named is the nearest railway station, it
being on the Oxford, Worcester and Wolverhampton line. This place is
said to have formerly been a borough, though it does not appear to have
ever returned members to the legislature. The town, which is seated in a
fertile valley, consists principally of one street, in which are some
respectable houses, and of several smaller streets, containing humbler
dwellings, irregularly built. The river Stour, which rises in some hills
not far distant, passes the town, as does the Netherton canal; about half
a mile from it. Lord Lyttleton is lord of the manor, and holds an annual
court leet, when a high and low bailiff, a constable, and head-borough
are appointed. A court for the recovery of debts under £5., the
jurisdiction of which included Hales Owen, is held at the court-house,
Oldbury, once a fortnight, but this is now become inoperative, by the
acts of the new County Court under which debts are recoverable to any
amount, not exceeding £50. This place has been noted for the manufacture
of nails, chains, and pearl and horn buttons. There are also, extensive
iron works, (including the British Iron Company), and manufactories for
gun-barrels, wrought iron hinges, anvils and vices, hammers and files,
spades, shovels, &c. The coal trade is of importance; bricks and tiles
are made to a considerable extent; and there are several maltings and
corn mills, in the town and neighbourhood.
The parish church of Saint John, (which has recently undergone a thorough
repair), is said to have been erected prior to the Conquest, contains a
beautiful monument to the memory of Major Halliday, and a plain one to
Shenstone the poet; the benefice is a vicarage, in the patronage of Lord
Lyttleton, and incumbency of the Rev. Richard Brindley Hone. There are
places of worship for Independents, and Wesleyan and Primitive
Methodists. The free grammar school here, was founded under a commission
for charitable uses. At a short distance from the town are the
‘Leassowes,’ the seat of the celebrated Shenstone, who received the
rudiments of his education in the Hales Owen grammar school, it is now
occupied by William Matthews, Esq. The market, which at the present day
is of little or no importance, is chartered to be held on Monday (now
held on Saturday); and a fair on Easter Monday. The entire parish of
Hales Owen contained in 1841, 17,376 and in 1851, 23,330 (this is
inclusive of Oldbury township which of itself contained at the last named
period 10,155.)
CRADLEY is a chapelry, in that part of the parish of Hales Owen which is
in the lower division of the hundred of Haltshire, county of Worcester;
two miles N.N.W. from Hales Owen, and three from Dudley and Stourbridge;
situated on the river Stour, which, running on the northern and western
sides of the chapelry, separates it from the county of Stafford.
Beautifully situated in a woody district, and pleasing walks, and on the
banks of a large pool or artificial lake, is Cradley Spa, where warm and
cold baths have been erected; the water is impregnated with sulphate of
soda, magnesia, &c., and is much used by invalids during the summer. At
one period, an attempt was made to manufacture salt here, but with very
partial success. Tin making of nails and chains now constitute the
staple of the chapelry. The places of worship are the chapel under the
establishment, and three others for dissenters: the living is a perpetual
curacy, of which the Rev. Charles Walker Simons, is the incumbent. A
national school, established here, is supported by subscription. The
soil of this district is fertile, and brick clay of an excellent quality
is obtained. The population of the chapelry, in 1851, was 3,383.
NETHEREND is a small village in Cradley chapelry, adjacent to Hales Owen;
and is chiefly to be noticed as having in its vicinity the extensive iron
works of Messrs. Evers & Sons, for the manufacture of tar, rolled, and
slit iron, for horse nails &c. which furnish employment to many hands,
and others are engaged in the malting trade, it also contains extensive
coal and brick works. In the village is a chapel for Unitarians, and a
free school. Population returned with Cradley chapelry.
