Colcloughs of Goldenhill

[templeton14]

Hi,
I'm currently researching my direct line of Colclough family of Goldenhill. I am interested in delving deeper into Colcloughs. I am aware of Anthony Colclough who served under Henry VIII and was awarded land in Co. Wexford, but I am interested in the Colcloughs who remained in Staffordshire. I have read somewhere that they owned a mill in Little Chell (approx 1500's), and there was a Manor House somewhere between Goldenhill and Tunstall. There are also the likes of Colclough Lane and Colclough Farm still in Goldenhill. They were obviously an influential family in the area and I am of course interested to see where/if my line fits into this somewhere. Has anyone done any research into the family or could point me in the right direction of any literature on the subject? Many thanks in advance,
Sarah

Hi Sarah,
Yes I've done research into the Tunstall and Turnock family that lived at Colclough house after the colclough's left for Ireland. You may see some posts on rootschat for these.
Colclough House has been for sale, parts still are on the estate.  There's an estate plan digitised at Keele university, staffs. I had it digitised some five years back, maybe ten. Colclough lane is one of the oldest roads or lanes in the Tunstall area.
Check out a website called British history online and the Victoria county history of Staffordshire for more details, probably Ward, history of Stoke on Trent also. My sons best mate lived at Colclough house (Brearley family).  It was once owned by the historical Heathcote family and our ancestor Thomas Tunstall occupied it from him. Ps I live locally to goldenhill.
