Demonstrating its significance, Euxton had a market charter granted in 1301 by Edward I and whilst the area was called Euxton, the township was called Euxtonburgh [REF].
Charles II lodged at Euxton Hall in 1651 when on his way south to Worcester,[REF] he is said to have drank water from the stream at the edge of Euxton describing it as "Cul Beck" or cool brook giving it its name, from whence the area takes it name [REF].
