The property is divided among a few. The living is a vicarage in the diocese of Chester. Value, £85.* Patron, the Bishop of Chester. The ancient church belonged to St. Mary's nunnery in Chester; and the present one was built in 1798. Dodd's almshouses have £130 from endowment; and other charities £62.
