| == Parish History ==
| |
| | |
| Gailey Christ Church was a former chapel of ease to [[Penkridge, Staffordshire]] which was formed as an Ecclesiastical Parish in 1869 from parts of [[Brewood, Staffordshire]] and [[Penkridge, Staffordshire]]. <br>
| |
| | |
| The church was deconsecrated and is now well known as Gailey Pottery.<br>
| |
| | |
| Gailey Hay formed, with Teddesley Hay, a division of the Forest of Cannock which before 1300 included the vills of Penkridge and Wolgarston, Pillaton, Otherton, Rodbaston, and Water Eaton, and also Calf Heath, and it was in the parish of Penkridge by 1252. By 1834 Gailey seems to have been an alternative name for the hamlet of Spread Eagle, which had consisted by 1775 of a few houses around the crossroads formed by Watling Street and the Stafford–Wolverhampton road and was still part of Water Eaton in 1851. The road widening at Gailey crossroads in 1929 and 1937, besides absorbing parts of Gailey churchyard, involved the demolition of the Spread Eagle Inn at the north-west corner of the crossing, but a new inn has replaced it. There are five post-1945 council houses in the cul-de-sac near Croft Farm.<br>

| The microfilming of marriages 1872-1976 has spelling Galey and refers to being part of Wolverhampton parish which is incorrect as can be seen from the Parish History quoted above. The entry is also confused in reference to Gailey -with- Hatherton attachment in 1869.<br>
