Hazel Grove history
Early history
Hazel Grove is made up of three separate townships: Norbury, Torkington and Bosden-cum-Handforth. Norbury (Nordberie) was mentioned in the Domesday Survey in 1086. Until the 17th century, the area was known exclusively by each of the respective townships.
Non-conformists
There were no churches in the area until the end of the 16th century. The church consisted of a very basic chapel, without communion. It was a favoured hotbed of the north-east Cheshire Non-conformist movement.
Religion
By 1833, the village had grown to over 3,000 people and it was decided the area should have its own parish. In July 1834, the Church of St Thomas was consecrated at Norbury.
Name change
In 1835, it was decided that the village would be known as Hazel Grove. The present Grove Inn had been called the Hazel Grove Inn since it opened.
