Altrincham area & North Wales history

 

Introduction - the object of the website

Altrincham lies nine miles south-west of Manchester.  The intention of this website is to provide references to documents and links to websites, rather than repeat local history already published.

  

For the Altrincham area, the Altrincham Heritage website available at www.altrinchamheritage.com contains a brief history of most of the Altrincham area towns mentioned in this website, and some of the documents quoted can be downloaded from there.

 

From this website, articles on Altrincham, Bowdon & Hale can be downloaded.  Also the redrawn high definition pdf tithe maps can be used freely or modified (crop via screen print and see  the Cheshire Tithe Maps online for detail).

 

For Llangollen, the object is to describe features of the nearby village of Rhewl and a pdf file can be downloaded about the area.  Also a short article on Buckley in Flintshire can be downloaded from the Family menu.

 

You can make comments through the Contact facility in the menu.
