STANTON and NEWHALL form a township, in the parish of Stapenhill,
Southern division of the county, hundred of Repton and Gresley, Swadlincote
petty sessional division, Burton-upon-Trent union and county court
district, rural deanery of Repton, archdeaconry of Derby and diocese
of Southwell : the former lies about 2 miles and the latter 4 south-east
from Burton-upon-Trent station, 125½ from London and about
6 north-west from Ashby-de-la-Zouch. Stanton and Newhall form one
township for rating purposes, but ecclesiastically, Stanton is annexed
to Stapenhill and Newhall is a separate ecclesiastical parish, formed
in 1845. The church of St. John, at Newhall, erected about 1842, at
a cost, including residence and school, of £7,000, is a structure
of brick in the Gothic style, consisting of chancel, nave, western
porch and a pinnacled tower at the west end containing a clock and
1 bell : in 1884 the church was restored and chancel added at a cost
of £800 raised by public subscriptions: there are 500 sittings,
100 being free. The register dates from the year 1842. The living
is a vicarage, gross yearly value £260, including 8 acres of
glebe, with residence, in the gift of trustees, and held since 1888
by the Rev. Edgar Henry Rand M.A. of Trinity College, Dublin. Here
are Wesleyan, Primitive Methodist and Free Methodist chapels. The
Hall, erected in 1874, at a cost of £3,000, by the late Anne
Elizabeth Countess of Chesterfield, in memory of her son, George,
seventh Earl of Chesterfield, is a brick building, and contains reading
and news rooms, billiard rooms and a spacious lecture hall, but is
now closed. Here are coal pits and brickfields. Stanton House, standing
in a park, is the seat of Lewis Barber esq. The Earl of Carnarvon
and J. and N. Nadin esqrs. are joint owners of the manor and principal
landowners. The soil is clay; subsoil, the same.
The area of the parish is 1,613 acres; rateable value, £4,072;
the population in 1881 was, of Stanton and Newhall township, £4,257
