Overchurch Park Wood
Overchurch Park is the area of grass and woodland bordered by Royden Road, the Upton By-pass, Moreton Road and the Overchurch Estate, it includes Overchurch Graveyard and the site of a Norman Church, the earliest references to the church are in 1347 however in the mid 20th century odd shaped stones were discovered nearby which had strange inscriptions on them. After examination by an expert the strange stones were concluded to be ancient Saxon Runes. Dated to the 7th century this "bidding stone" is on display at the Grosvenor Museum in Chester.
In 1859 Thomas Webster built a house "Overchurch Hill" next to the old graveyard and Overchurch Park became part of the formal gardens and parkland of the house. In 1947 the house and land were sold and the house became a children's home and was demolished in the late 1950's. Gravestones can still be found scattered throughout the woodland.
