The Hilderstone Miscellany

Traditional cottages on the Sandon Road

Welcome. This website contains a number of Miscellaneous items about Hilderstone, a village in rural mid Staffordshire, England.

It seeks to provide an insight into a typical English village over the years. It is hoped that the site will grow and develop (probably in ways presently unforeseen) in the future. It will only evolve in this way if people are kind enough to contribute to it. So if you have any information whatsoever relating to the village or the people connected with it, please contact the Webmaster at webmaster@hilderstone.com

At present there are pages relating to the entries relating to the village in the Doomsday Book, Christ Church, the Gerard family (lords of the manor for the village in the seventeenth century), the toll road passing through the village, etc. A gallery of drawings carried out at the beginning of the 21st century is included.

Recent additions are pages relating to the War Memorial and those who served their village and country in the two World Wars. There is also a page relating to a possible connection with Robin Hood.

We hope you enjoy visiting this site. Please assist it enlarge by sending your contributions. All will be acknowledged.

Other sites relating to Hilderstone are the village site,which deals with more contemporary items relating to the village, and the Christ Church site,which contains more information relating to Christ Church.
