About Stubshaw Cross

Stubshaw Cross, a quiet corner of the Wigan district, breathes the understated air of the North West. It lies 1.3 km north-east of Ashton-in-Makerfield (from Ashton-in-Makerfield: bearing 52°T, OS grid SD 587 000). The gentle slope of the land here, where roads curve with a certain unhurried grace, hints at its past as a place of quiet cultivation rather than grand industry. A faint whisper of the collieries that once defined the wider region may still linger in the memory of the soil, though Stubshaw Cross itself has long since settled into a more pastoral character. The soft, diffused light that often graces the Lancashire sky lends a certain luminescence to the brickwork of its homes, each one a small testament to the enduring spirit of its inhabitants. The very air, when the wind carries it from the open fields, seems to hold a promise of calm.
