Talk:Hundersfield

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I don't know where the external links got their info from, but here is what Youngs has to say on the subject (abbreviations expanded)

"HUNDERSFIELD. Ecclesiastical parish, created 1746 from the ancient parish of Rochdale, seperate ecclesiastal status not sustained. Rochdale Rural Deanery."

That's it. Certainly not an ancient parish, not a civil parish, and certainly not "split up" in 1894: the historical record here is quite well documented and it is known that these townships and chapelries became civil parishes in 1866 anyway. Morwen - Talk 10:19, 5 August 2006 (UTC)
