      Google or Wikipedia should be able to help with the definition of 'Chancery' - could this be the legal subject - 'Court of Chancery' by any chance? However, not much connection with Chat Moss, apart from the fact that both begin with 'ch'...!! ;-)

      Well worth a visit, go by rail and sample The Ratty Arms Pub on the main line station, real ale and good food. If you travel back towards Barrow and get off at Foxfield The Prince of Wales is across the road, its a brew pub, and the food is super.
