Baddiley, Cheshire, St. Michael. An unusual building, Chris explains:- "As is quite usual, the responsibility for repair of the chancel and nave are quite separate, though not always as visually striking
as this. (Background: The rector was responsible for the chancel, and the parish for the nave. Sometimes for historical reasons a particular house in a village
inherits the responsibility for repair of the chancel. A recent case in the
papers (Aston Cantlow v Warwick) concerned a house-owner who found herself landed
with a hefty bill for repair of the chancel. Baddiley church is no different from other churches concerning respective responsibilities". See also the
Hinderwell, North Yorkshire entry. The chancel is timber-framed. Normally
closed, but open on Saturdays from April onwards. SJ 6051 5035. Both © Chris Emms (2010).

Link, which says it was closed in the 1980's. Howard Richter advises of an
earlier small P.M. chapel, built in 1832. Mentioned
here, it may be the same building which shows in later 19th century
maps as U.F.C. This later became a Church of England Mission Room, bought in
1915, and as shown on a 1964 O.S. map, but it has since been demolished and a
house built on the site. The National Archives hold records for 1940-1969. A
Streetview of the house shows an older boundary wall, and this is consistent
with the boundary shown for the Mission Room on O.S. maps, and so is a likely
remnant.

Grade II* listed. A cross-base in the churchyard
is listed separately as
grade II. There was a Methodist Chapel
(originally Wesleyan) on the B5392 at SJ 8410 7085. Dated by Genuki to 1865, I
think it stood roughly where the garage is in this
Streetview from 2009. It was
active at least up to the mid-1970's.
