New Mills Branch was made a circuit in 1827, and was annexedto the Manchester District; and the next year Bradwell itself was transferred fromNottingham District to Manchester. There is some significance in this transference. When the Sheffiel reached these high altitudes, Primitive Methodism had circuitously returned to its sources; for the High Peak is part of the Pennine range of which Mow Cop is also a part. The Peak country is a watershed feeding the Mersey on one slope, and the Dove, the Derwent and the Don, tributaries of the Trent, on the other. Primitive Methodism from Bradwell spilled over the water-parting somewhat, and mingled itself with the movement from Manchester and Stockport. A similar process went on from Macclesfield on the other side ; for from that Cheshire town now aflame, earnest men and women crossed the ridge to evangelise some missionaries.
