A history of St Paul's Church, Stalybridge from 1835 to 1869. The building and development of the church and its schools are dealt with in detail, as is the rich social life of the community connected with St Paul's. Whit Walks, tea parties, lectures, music and bell ringing all get attention. The Sunday school gets a chapter on its own, as do the Lancashire Cotton Famine and the anti-Catholic Murphy Riots which dominated the life of the town in the 1860s.
