Mow Cop's County

Mow Cop is unusual in so far as it straddles the border between Cheshire and Staffordshire. So, it is quite appropriate to include Stubs, etc for both counties in this village's entry. It makes the village notable, for this reason. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Ddstretch (talk • contribs) 16:51, 3 January 2007 (UTC).

• Yes, the craggs the castle sits on and the road from Astbury in Congleton form much of the border. Much of the village sits in Staffordshire and a lot on the Cheshire side as well.

The Staffordshire side comes under the jurisdiction of Newcastle-under-Lyme with Kidsgrove and the Cheshire side formerly under Congleton district, now Cheshire East. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Kentynet (talk • contribs) 14:00, 5 September 2010 (UTC)

Notable Residents?

Are Charles Machin and Alan Jones notable enough to be listed? Any references confirming they live in Mow Cop?

What about someone like Jack Simcock, a famous painter. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2.127.19.169 (talk) 15:21, 14 November 2011 (UTC)
