Looking onto the roofs
Although the northern half of this gritstone ridge is called Congleton Edge there is also a small community of houses that go by the same name. This picture is looking down from the public footpath onto the tops of some of those houses.

Tight fit
With very limited room for turning round in Congleton Edge and Nick i' th' Hill, the refuse wagon has to reverse for about quarter of a mile to service the last houses on this road.

Congleton Edge War Memorial
Located in the tiny graveyard attached to Image, this memorial is a poignant reminder that there were probably no communities in Britain and Ireland untouched by World War I. There are five names inscribed on the panels, this may not seem many until it is put in context- Congleton Edge is a tiny community that is hardly big enough to call a hamlet and to lose five able-bodied men in one go must have been devastating, affecting all the households in one way or another.

Congleton Edge Methodist Chapel
First built in 1883 as a Wesleyan Chapel, it was then rebuilt in 1889. It is still very much in use having been refurbished in recent years with new toilets, central heating and a kitchen area added. They are trying very hard to keep this chapel going - hoping that it will become a popular venue for weddings and other Christian social events ( http://www.congletonmethodist.org.uk/ourchurches/ourchurches_subpages/congleton_edge_background.htm ), it is certainly in a very lovely location. Just past the third window is a benchmark pictured in Image For a similar view taken in 2007 see Image taken by Neil Lewin, very little has changed!

Foundation Stones
on the Congleton Edge Methodist Chapel. As they are dated 1929 I presume that these are for an extension of the original chapel.
