Sir Thomas Egerton 24th November
Bernard Dennis certainly tells a good story. And what a story he had to tell. Sir Thomas Egerton, born a few miles from Tarporley in Doddleston, was the 'local boy made good'. Born in relatively humble circumstances, Thomas rose to some of the highest posts in the land. including Lord Keeper of the Great Seal, and Lord Chancellor. He served both Queen Elizabeth and King James in a time of significant changes. A fascinating man.
