 The beginning of a Village - Forsbrook Village   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
Blythe Bridge remained merely a river crossing by a cross-roads until well into the 1600's, when a few scattered farms, cottages and a tavern or two sprang up alongside the A50, notably at Stonehouses, the Swan Inn (Ford's Farm), Grindley cottage and the White Cock.
Blythe Bridge was a tiny group of cottages centred on Swan Passage, Blythe Marsh consisted of a number of cottages straggling along Uttoxeter road from the junction of Stallington road towards Draycott, and Stonehouse comprised a couple of farm buildings.
In any event Blythe Bridge was the locality which was chosen for the station and although Cheadle's prominent citizens were somewhat peeved that their town was not served by the railway, it wasn't until 1901 that a complete line connected the town via a branch from Cresswell through Totmanslow.
