Tour of the Madeley Area

 

Aerial Photographs 

Paul O’Reilly from the Holborn has kindly donated these photographs. I am sure that many of you will get much enjoyment out of looking at them. Thank you Paul.

On the 16th May 2004, the Madeley website staff were kindly allowed access to the Tower of All Saint’s Church. The weather that day was excellent for snapping surrounding elevated views from the tower. Included here are just a few of the many photographs taken internally and externally. Time and web space allowing, it is hoped that more photographs of our visit will be shown. Our thanks to David Budgen, Stephen Clifford and the Reverend Barry Wilson for their kind permissions.

Looking across the entrance of The Holborn at the junction with Poolside. Madeley High School can just be seen. In the distance is the site of derelict Heighley Castle.
