ABSTRACT
Last year found me driving northwards along the old London to Manchester road A34, and as I came opposite to that fake castle perched on the hill at Mow Cop between Kidsgrove and Congleton, I saw a signpost directing me to a little lane on my left and marked “Rode Heath”, at the village which goes by the name of “Scholar Green”. Turn down this lane and you will quickly come to a small church, nearly opposite to the gates of a private park. It is a bit of still-unspoilt Cheshire, peaceful and calmly beautiful. I parked and went into the church.
