Summary edit

Description
English: Blessed are the geographically challenged Roger Wrenno (aka Wrenall) was a Chorley weaver who was imprisoned in Lancaster gaol for assisting priests. He escaped one night with a fellow prisoner (a priest from Whalley) but was captured the following morning near the gaol after apparently walking around in circles all night. The pair were both hanged shortly afterwards. Had Roger been proficient with map and compass he might never have become a Catholic martyr. This plaque is on a wall on Market Street near St Mary's Catholic church.
