About Baswich
Where to stay in Baswich
Each area has its own feel; here's who each one suits.
Rooms belong to Stafford. Baswich is an estate on the town's south eastern side rather than a separate destination, and what it carries on the register, the Church of Holy Trinity and the monuments standing around it, is a churchyard rather than a hotel quarter. A Stafford base covers it.
From there the Salt Monument, the Twigg Monument and the Ward Memorials are a short run out, with the wider county of Staffordshire opening beyond the estate's edge.
About Baswich
What are the main landmarks in Baswich?
Four entries, one churchyard. The Church of Holy Trinity anchors Baswich, and almost everything else recorded here stands within its churchyard rather than anywhere else on the estate. Three Ward Memorials sit south of it.
The Salt Monument stands north of the transept and the Twigg Monument west of the tower, so the whole set can be read in a single circuit of the ground.
What is the history of Baswich?
Baswich's history is written mostly in stone. The Church of Holy Trinity carries the parish line, and the monuments raised around it, the Salt Monument by the transept, the Twigg Monument by the tower, and the group of three Ward Memorials, stand for what the estate has left no written account of. The rest of the record is short.
Baswich sits inside the Stafford district in Staffordshire, an estate on the town's south eastern side whose oldest visible fabric remains the church and the stones set about it.
