The parish also includes the villages of Hill Ridware, Rake End, Pipe Ridware and Blithbury, all of which lie between the River Trent and a small tributary, the River Blithe. Adjacent to the east is the parish of Hamstall Ridware; to the south is the much larger village of Armitage. HeritageMavesyn Ridware contains two notable buildings: the parish church dedicated to St Nicholas and the Gatehouse of the former ancient Manor House. The name "Mavesyn" derives from the French Malvoisin, which was the name of the Norman family which acquired the local estate after the Norman conquest of 1066. The church contains many monuments to members of that family, and to their successors as lords of the manor, the Cawardens and the Chadwicks. The Gatehouse is timber framed with a later skin of brick and stone. Dendrochronology on the timbers indicates that the building was erected in 1391–92. AmenitiesThe village is not served by public transport, other than a minibus service to Handsacre or Rugeley, which must be booked in advance by phone or on the web.[3] The nearest railway station is at Rugeley (5 miles, 8 km). Ridware has a bowls club and a youth club. There is a village hall for hire.[4] Notable residents
