A picture of Wrea Green

St Nicholas Church. Wrea Green, Lancashire. Wrea Green was simply known as "Wray" up until the late nineteenth century. The village became known as "Wrea Green" to avoid confusion with the village of Wray, near Hornby. Indeed, the change of name was pressed for, by the incumbent vicar of the day - the long serving Rev. RS Stoney whose mail was arriving frequently in the wrong town.
