Taken from the preface:The purpose of this volume is to provide those interested in local history with an accessible copy of the manuscript writings of the Reverend John Watson which were intended to form the basis of a History of Cheshire and were collected by him during the period he was Rector of Stockport (1769-1783). The original manuscript, together with a number of other works by the Reverend J. Watson, is preserved in the Bodleian Library, Oxford, a situation which rendered one of the chief documents bearing upon local history inaccessible to the average student.
