A fascinating link


CUTHKROK Castle is very much in the news this year, but recently 1 came across an inte res t ing small d e ta i l which, a f te r reading almost every word wr i t ten about the ancient structure, both currently and in the past, was abso­ lutely new to me.


I won der i f it is also


new to you? C an you tell me the con nec t ion b e t ­ ween the castle and that lo vely lit t le hamlet ttieked awa y in the most p ic ­ tu re sq u e c o rn e r o f the H o d d e r


V a l l e y .


W h itew c ll? You don’t know? Then


let me te ll you the sto ry as it came to me. F rom the earlies t days,


s e c u re ly housed in the in n e r bailey o f the castle was a lit t le chapel. It may have been o f timber , it may have been o f stone. Nobody can be de f in ite on th is point, for there are no contemporary pic tu res


o r d e ta ile d d o cum e n ts , but there it stood and it was dedicated to the B le s ­


sed S t Michael. In common w ith the


town its e lf and most of F a s t L an ca sh ire at the time, it stood w ith in the p a r ish o f W h a lle v and. o v e r the y e a rs , was a place o f solace and in spi­ r a t io n . a s h r in e f o r C h r is t ia n worship, for the garr ison and residen ts of th e c a s t le . O n th e s e points the documents s t ill


W h a l l e y W i n d o w


e x is t in g are ir refu table. N ow le t us tu rn to


W h itew e ll. S ix hundred years ago in the manor of that name lived W a lte r W o rswick . a Koval F o re s ­ ter. You can see his home today and w ill know it as Th e W h itew e ll Hotel — g re a t ly a lte re d and e x ­ tended o ver the centuries — but the s ite is a u th en t i­ cated by documents s t ill


preserved. W a lte r was a religious


man, and, adjacent to his home, lie e s ta b lsh e d a t in y chapel for the com­ fo rt ami ben e f it o f his family and neighbours. The years went by and


the chapel was extended and repaired. Documents


tell us that in 1-1‘J— the chapel had a new " th a k ” o r th a t c h . It b e cam e k n o w n a s B o w la n d Chapel: a place of sanctu­ a ry where t ra v e lle rs often


paused for prayer and meditation before sta rt in g


th e ir hazardous jo u rn e y s throu gh The T ro u g h — then the haunt o f robbers am i o u t law s w ho s u p ­ p lem e n te d th e n a tu ra l r ig o u r s o f th e lo n e ly


moors and crags. A sum o f money was


lo d g e d w i t h th e A r ­ chbishop o f C a n te rb u ry to ensure the continuance of


a monthly service in the ch a p e l, a d u ty u su a lly


un de r ta ken by a curate from Wh alley.


T h i s p r o v is io n wa


made subsequent to the Deformation o f the K ith C e n tu ry . The chapel in C lith e ro e C a s t le was no longer in use and the en­ dowments to which it was en t it led — a provision had been made for the work of a curate there — were passed to W h itewell.


T h e ch a p e l had now


been extended to eight times its o rigin al size and


the present church was built in 1S17. The follow­ ing y e ar it was reconse­ crated by the Bishop of C h e s te r and dedicated to St Michael. In 1S78 it a t ­ ta in e d the s ta tu s o f a P a r i s h C h u r c h ly in g w i th in th e D io c e s e o f M a n c h e s t e r . N o w , o f course, it lies in the D io­ cese o f Blackburn.


Now you know the con­


nection between C lith e ro e C a s t le and the hamlet of W h i t e w e l l . T h e l i t t le chapel built by a Norman


lord o ver SOD years ago ga ve its name an il its income to the church in W h itew e ll and. in f in ite s i­ mal though that income may lie. 1 am sure that the parish ioners o f Bow- land are t ru ly grateful. N e x t time you are in


th e a re a , pause aw h ile and take a look at the lit t le church and r e l ie d on its long h is to ry . It well repays a visit .
