Congleton is a town and civil parish in the unitary authority of Cheshire East and the ceremonial county of Cheshire, England. Congleton lies on the banks of the River Dane, 21 miles south of Manchester and to the west of the Macclesfield Canal.

The town of Congleton is broken up by the Congleton townspeople into seven main areas. These are Buglawton, otherwise known as Bug Town; the Bromley Farm estate, otherwise known as Tin Town due to the number of tin RSJs built there; Mossley, which is sometimes classed as the wealthier part of town; Hightown, which is located before Mossley between town and the railway station; West Heath, which is a relatively new estate built in the early 1960s to the early 1980s; Lower Heath to the north of the town; and finally the town centre.

Congleton is located in a river valley (the River Dane). To the south of the town lies an expanse of green space known locally as Priesty Fields that forms a green corridor right into the heart of the town – a rare feature in English towns.

The National Trust Tudor house Little Moreton Hall is four miles (6.4 km) southwest of the town. Congleton is home to one of the oldest recorded rugby union clubs in the country, dating back to 1860, although there have been periods when the club were not able to field a side.

There is also a local football team, Congleton Town F.C., known as the Bears, who play in the North West Counties League. Their ground is at Booth Street. There are also two cricket clubs, Congleton CC and Mossley CC. There are two golf clubs in the town; the historic Congleton Golf Club which is an undulating nine-hole course with views over the Cloud End, and the 18-hole parkland course at Astbury. There is also a running club, Congleton Harriers, which meets weekly at Congleton Leisure Centre.

Congleton Park is located along the banks of the River Dane just north east of the town centre. Town Wood on the northern edge of the park is a Grade A Site of Biological Interest and contains many nationally important plants. Congleton Paddling Pool was built in the 1930s and is open in the summer months. Astbury Mere Country Park lies just to the south west of the town centre, on the site of a former sand quarry. The lake is used for fishing and sailing and despite its name, is actually in the West Heath area of Congleton, with the boundary between Congleton and Newbold Astbury parishes lying further to the south.

Congleton Museum is on Market Square in the centre of town. It was established in 2002 and is dedicated to Congleton's industrial history. It also contains an ancient log boat and gold and silver coin hoards. Congleton is seven miles (11 km) east of the M6 motorway, connected by the A534.

Congleton railway station opened on 9 October 1848. It lies on the Manchester to Stoke-on-Trent branch of the West Coast Main Line. It was revealed in The Sentinel newspaper on 7 September 2011. The Macclesfield Canal, completed in 1831, passes through the town. It runs 26 miles (42 km) from Marple Junction at Marple, where it joins the Upper Peak Forest Canal, southwards (through Bollington and Macclesfield), before arriving at Bosley.

The Welcoming Land, by Clemence Dane - read by Sir Noël Coward

Written in England during the early stages of World War II, this poem is surprisingly absent from the Interweb, except for a single video elsewhere on YouTube, which has no Description.

The outbreak of the Second World War found Noël Coward making good use of his talent to amuse, trying to do his bit for the war-effort. Indeed, during this time many of his finest miscellaneous songs made their first appearance, including Don't Let's Be Beastly To The Germans (wrongly interpreted as ambiguously pro-Nazi). This was for a time banned from BBC air-waves and the sardonic Could You Please Oblige Us With A Bren Gun? (a sort of Cowardian sequel to The Washing On The Siegfried Line) and morale-boosters, like There Have Been Songs In England and the rather more timeless London Pride, delivered in that same genuine, un-jingoistic spirit of patriotism which informs The Welcoming Land, written by Coward's friend 'Clemence Dane'. (Courtesy of Peter Dempsey).

Given the times in which The Welcoming Land was written and recorded, one can easily understand the sentiments expressed here. If published today, it would probably be mocked and dismissed - quite likely amidst a firestorm of hysteria and abuse.

I could not track down the text of this poem on the Net, so I'm transcribing Noël's recitation order to publish it here - helped by his marvellous diction!

... OK here it is, with many mistakes no doubt, particularly at verse 6 - grateful for help here, as well as with punctuation and verse layout (prosody?):

The Welcoming Land
by Clemence Dane

1. In the beginning
The People came to the Island
Trampled the sand
Climbed the White Cliff to the Downs
British and Roman people
Saxon, Norman and Dane

2. Their predestinate toil
Was to drain the marshes
And till the soil
Conquer the forests and build the Towns

3. Then came exiles who fled from death:
Hunted Huguenots, Jews from Spain
To the wise Island
Drew sobbing breath in the easy air
And smelt the may
Sweet as a kiss on a Summer day
And wept; and worshipped the land

4. They gave it their craft
Their skill, their sweat
They spent their lives to make lovelier yet
The country of cornfield and briar rose,
The People's England
The Welcoming Land

5. The People's Land lies here and there
From Ivinghoe to Buttermere
From Shakespeare's cliffs
To the mocking reeds
That bowed to John at Runnymede

6. Tennyson, Downes, and Boniface
Imbor Common, Bramshott Chase
Cheddar Cliffs and Midsummer Hill
We are the People who own them still

7. Free forever is the sand of Chynance
And Blue Anchor Bay
And every evening, everywhere
The boys and girls come out to play

8. Bodiam Castle was raw new stone
When its Master fought with Henry at Agincourt
Empty today the grey walls stand
On twelve fair acres of People's Land

9. The people of Little West Wycombe
Live in their cottages still
Hang up their washing
And tie up their lettuces
Under the grass-green Chiltern Hill

10. There's a bell in the church that once rang:
Steady! Armada! Invasion! Spain!
And the people of Little West Wycombe
Are ready, perfectly ready
To ring it again

11. Which way to go, when every way is ours
These are our woods and flowers
These waters flow, these grasses grow
These roads are running over people's land

12. Since the beginning, people have come to the Island
Climbed the cliff to the Downs, smelt the hay
Sweet as a letter from home on a Winter day

13. O with such pride
Since the beginning
People have lived and died
For the country of cornfield and briar rose
Buttercup meadow and orchard grove
England! The People's England
The Welcoming Land

Additional Notes:

Clemence Dane was the pseudonym of Winifred Ashton (21 February 1888 -- 28 March 1965), an English novelist and playwright.

Sir Noël Peirce Coward (16 December 1899 -- 26 March 1973) was an English playwright, composer, director, actor and singer, known for his wit, flamboyance, and what Time magazine called a sense of personal style, a combination of cheek and chic, pose and poise. (Courtesy of Wikipedia).

The music I chose for this recitation is the short, gravely noble Prelude to the film 49th Parallel. It was Ralph Vaughan Williams' first film score dating from 1940-41. 49th Parallel was made by the British writer-director team of Michael Powell and Emeric Pressburger in an attempt by the British Government in the Second World War to sway opinion in the then still neutral United States of America.

Here is a link to an earlier video I made of RVW's Prelude:

I took these images in various parts of the Peak District National Park, Derbyshire, England. The closing slide I shot during the celebratory year of HM Queen Elizabeth II's Diamond Jubilee in 2012 - a creation of loyal whimsy, and the more sincere for that.
