HUDC Handbook: Difference between revisions

As a work on the history of Hoole the Handbook makes a number of significant errors and while it indicates that the writer had access to some historical works he evidently does not us them well, and seems entirely ignorant (or purposely ignores) some parts of the history and topography of Hoole. He should have known where Flookersbrook flowed, who Finchett-Maddock was and omits much of the history relating to his somewhat selective subject-matter. Baldwin the ballonist gets no mention nor Lady Broughton and he has MalcomMalcolm III seemingly at the gates of Chester. Nelson apparently strolls around Hoole, and the author is utterly confused over Bishops. Some of his facts are correct but the errors make this an unreliable source for things not confirmed elsewhere.
