ECKINGTON is an extensive
parish and township, and contains the hamlets of Mosborough, Renishaw, and
Troway, which keep their poor conjointly, and have 6,934A. 2R. 8P. of land, and
in 1851, had 1,046 houses, and 4,958 inhabitants, of whom 2,639 were males and
2,339 females; rateable value £18,591 4s. 0d. The land is mostly a strong
fertile soil, and was inclosed in 1795. It is bounded on the east by the river
Rother, which separates it from Killamarsh, having the parish of Norton on the
west, and the parish of Handsworth, in Yorkshire, on the north. The rectory was
formerly held with that of Killamarsh, which together were worth about £1,600
per annum; but by an Order in Council, dated June 10th, 1843, pursuant to the
reforming plans of the Ecclesiastical Commissioners, Killamarah was made a
separate rectory; and Ridgway, with the Troway quarter, a perpetual curacy and
distinct parish. Troway forms the western side of the parish of Eckington, with
which it still keeps its poor, but each quarter keeps its own roads. This
parish is the great seat of the sickle and reaping hook manufactory, and is
included in the Sheffield Corporation of Cutlers.
ECKINGTON PARISH. 745
ECKINGTON is a large
irregular built village and market town, situated on the southern acclivity of
a narrow valley, from which there is a tedious flight of steps up to the
church. It is 7 miles N.E. by E. from Chesterfield, and 7 miles S.E. from
Sheffield. Sir Sitwell Reresby Sitwell, Bart., is principal owner and lord of
the manor, which includes the whole parish, and in the reign of Henry I, was
held by J. Langford, “by grand sergeantry to find one horse of the value of
5s., with a sack and spur, for the king’s wars in Wales, for forty days.” At
the Norman survey there was a priest and servant at Eckington, but no church.
The manor and advowson of the church, however, in the reign of Edward II., were
held by Elizabeth, wife of R. Stuteville. The Church, dedicated to St. Peter
and St. Paul, is an ancient edifice in the Anglo-Norman style, with a tower and
spire, remarkably heavy and void of ornament. The living is a rectory, valued in the King’s book at £40 13s. 4d., now
£774, in the patronage of the Crown; the Rev. Edmund Bucknall Estcourt, M.A.,
incumbent, and the Rev. J. Eastwood,
M.A., curate. In the church are some ancient monuments, on one of which is a
male and female figure kneeling on one knee, in the costume of the time of
Charles II. The organist has an endowment of £14 a year, arising from land, and
£5 from other sources. The Rectory is a large stone mansion, erected about
1720, with extensive pleasure grounds, commanding a fine view of the
surrounding country; it is at present occupied by the curate. The Wesleyans
have a chapel, erected in 1807, and the Association Methodists one, built in
1837. The school, rebuilt in 1832, at a cost of upwards of £600, is open to all
the poor of the parish: in consequence of the late rector (who seldom visited
the parish) having the deeds at his residence in Wales, the Charity Commissioners
could not report on it. Here is a girls’ school, conducted on the National
plan, which is in part supported by Lady Sitwell, the children paying a small
fee weekly; about 55 attend. The Mechanics’ Institution, established 1854, has a small library and
news room in connection with it. Thomas McLaurin, jun., librarian.
Petty-sessions are held on the second Wednesday in every month. In 1852, a
Court-house with a lock-up was erected; it is a large substantial stone
building, near the White Hart Hotel. The market is held on Friday; and fairs
are held on the first Wednesday in April and October; and a statute fair for
hiring servants on the 6th November. The feast is on the first Sunday after
Midsummer day. Races are held during the feast week. In the time of William the
Conqueror, this manor (Echintone) was in the possession of Ralph, the son of Hubert. At this time there
was a priest at Eckington, but we find no mention of any church being here,
until the beginning of the 14th century. In the reign of Edward I. this manor
belonged to one Langford, from whom it has passed, by various changes, to the
present owner.
MOSBOROUGH is a large
scattered and irregular built village, situated on a acclivity 8 miles N.N.E. from
Chesterfield, and 6 miles S.S.E. from Sheffield, lying to the north of
Eckington, from which it is divided by a small brook. Sir Sitwell Reresby
Sitwell, Bart., is lord of the manor and principal owner, besides which, here
are several small free-holders. Mosborough
Hall is a large square stone structure, with stone balustrades on the top,
situated at the summit of the village, the seat and property of Charles
Rotherham, Esq. The Wesleyan Methodists have a neat stone chapel here, erected
in 1839, and the Primitive Methodist a small one, erected in 1830. Many sickles
and hooks are manufactured, and here are also collieries where coke is burned
for steel refiners. In 1835, a corn mill here was destroyed by fire. Here is a
Free School for boys and girls, (see Charities)
erected in 1821, by subscription, at a cost of £200, and is endowed with
lands, &c., amounting to £28 10s. per annum, left by Joseph Stones, in
1680. The master instructs 15 children free, for which he has a house and
garden rent free. The school, is a neat stone building, and will hold about
100. It is taught on the National plan, and about 55 attend. Mosborough
includes Mosborough Moor, (now enclosed on the north), and consists of a
colliery and a few cottage houses, with two inns; Plumley, a small
hamlet, about ¾ mile W., contains two farms; and Holbrook, a small
hamlet, ¾ mile E., where there are a few cottages.

RENISHAW is a small village
situated in the vale of the Rother, on the east of Eckington, 7½ miles N.E. by
N. from Chesterfield. Here are the extensive iron furnaces and foundries of
Messrs. Appleby and Co. The Chesterfield canal passes close to the works, which
affords every means of transit for their metals and castings, for which they
stand pre-eminent. The Midland railway has also a station near Renishaw
Iron-works, near which is the Sitwell Arms Inn, conveniently adapted for the
accommodation of passengers, and where a cab is always in readiness. Here is a
Free School, endowed by Thomas Cannon and others,—(See Charities),—with lands,
&c., the rents thereof to be paid to the schoolmaster for instructing poor
children of Renishaw and Eckington. The school is a commodious stone building,
rebuilt in 1832, at a cost of about £600. Renishaw
Hall, about ½ mile S.E, from Eckington, is a large handsome stone mansion
with a centre and wings; from the centre, which stands a little backward,
projects a semi-octagonal entrance, surmounted by battlements having pinnacles
at the corners, with vanes rising from the wings and centre. It is pleasantly
situated in an extensive park, well wooded, fronting the north, commanding an
extensive prospect, lying on the west side of the Sheffield road and of the
vale of the Rother. It is the property of Sir Sitwell Reresby Sitwell, Bart.
SPINK HILL is a hamlet and
small village, situated on a lofty eminence 1 mile E. of Renishaw, and has long
been noted for its Catholic chapel, and where a handsome Catholic church was
erected in 1845, with a tower, from which rises a spire 50 feet high. A
handsome building, principally of brick, has also been erected, which forms
three sides of a square, the projecting ends finished octangular with stone;
the enclosed side has a stone piazza, crossing from the other two sides, over
which is a singular looking screen, covered to the height of the building,
giving free access around the outside of the building, yet sheltered from the
weather. It is cemented in imitation of stone. This is a Jesuit college, for
the education of youth, and is a branch from Stoneyhurst, in Lancashire,
established there by some refugees driven from their establishment at Liege, in
1794, by the horrors of war and the proscriptions of the French revolution. In
connexion with which, in 1852, a School was erected, with a house for the
master, at a cost of upwards of £600, raised by subscription. It is a handsome
stone building in the Gothic style, open to all denominations, and is under
general inspection; it will accommodate about 120, and the average attendance
is about 90.
RIDGWAY, is a small village
5 miles S.S.E. from Sheffield, and 8 miles N. by E. from Chesterfield, forming
the western side of Eckington parish, with which it still keeps its poor. It
was by order in Council, dated 10th June, 1843, made ecclesiastically a distinct
parish. The manufacturing of sickle and reaping hooks is carried on here to a
considerable extent. The Church, dedicated to St. John the Baptist, is a small
neat building, on a declivity, was erected in 1840 at a cost of £2,000, raised
by subscription, aided by grants from the Incorporated Society for Building and
Enlarging Churches, and from the Diocesan Society of £800. It is a stone
building, of unpresuming appearance, having a buttress surmounted with a cross,
which holds one bell. The living is a perpetual curacy, valued at £300.
The rector of Eckington patron, Rev. Alexander Crawford Bromehead, jun., B.A.,
incumbent, and the Rev. R. K. Bolton, B.A., curate. It is endowed with £280 per
annum, paid from the rectorial tithe or corn rent of Eckington; the rent of 28
pews in the church is also appropriated to the augmentation of the resident
curate’s stipend, as specified in the deed of endowment. The Methodist chapel,
erected 1806, is a neat stone building, with burial ground attached. The
National School, erected 1837, by private subscription, is a small neat
building. Grants from the National School Society of £30, and from the Lords of
Her Majesty’s treasury of £80, were obtained towards defraying the expenses of
the erection. At the enclosure of Eckington, in 1795, 2A. 3R. 5P. of land was
vested in the rector and churchwardens for the use of a schoolmaster, in
consideration of his teaching 5 poor children of Ridgway and Troway
quarter. The master also had a dwelling house provided. This land is now let
for £4 10d. per annum, which is paid
ECKINGTON PARISH. 747
to the master of the national school, who
teaches 5 poor children free. Carter Lane 1 mile W. from Ridgway,
consists of a few scattered farms. Carter
Hall an ancient residence now in the occupation of Mr. Edwin Inman. Ford, 1 mile S. by W., situated in a
deep glen, is a small hamlet, noted for its ancient sickle manufactory. High Lane, ½ mile N., consists of a few
scattered houses. White Lane on the
N.W., where is Charnock Hall, an
ancient mansion, the property of George Rhodes, Esq. Sload Lane is a scattered district of farms, ½ mile W. Troway, the ancient seat of the sickle
manufacture, is a small scattered village, situated on a lofty eminence in a
sequestered spot, 1½ miles S. W. from Ridgway, and 6 miles N. by E. from
Chesterfield. It forms with Ridgway ecclesiastically a distinct parish, but
still keeps its poor with Eckington. Bramley
a small village, 1 mile E. by S. from Troway, a little north of which is Bole Hill, another small hamlet. Marsh Lane a scattered district of
houses, extending 2½ miles S. from Ridgway, and partly in Eckington quarter.
CHARITIES.—Margaret Foljambe, widow, in 1762, directed a rent charge of £5 per annum, to be paid out of
a tenement at Barlborough Wood Lane End, and several closes of land called the
Croft, the Little Ox close, the Great Meadow, and the Long Meadow. These
premises are now in the possession of Sir S. R. Sitwell, subject to the above
payment, which is distributed at the vestry on St. Thomas’s day, 40s. thereof
equally amongst 20 poor widows, and the residue to 60 other poor persons of the
quarters of Eckington and Renishaw, in sums of ls. each. An annual sum of £4 is
received by the overseers, as a charge upon some part of the estate of E. S.
Chandos Pole, Esq., which is given in sums varying from 1s. to 2s. 6d.
Jonathan Bromehead, in 1791, left on trust for the benefit of the poor,
certain messuages in Eckington, and an allotment of land, containing 1A. 0R. 20P.
on Eckington Marsh. The following benefactions may be considered as forming
part of this charity, though given by the Rev.
Joseph Bromehead and other persons of his family, in consequence of the
loss of a legacy intended to have been given by the said Jonathan Bromehead.
The sum of £200 in 1819, and the sum of £100 in 1827, were invested in the
three per cent. consols. Out of the income of the charities, consisting of
rents and dividends, seven 5d. loaves are given weekly to poor families of
Eckington and Renshaw quarters.
Henry Inman, in 1711, devised his lands and tenements at Newbold, upon trust, the
rents and profits thereof to provide strong warm blue gowns, with the letters H
and I to be set upon one of the sleeves. The land is now let for £6 10s. per
annum. One moiety thereof is given to Eckington quarter, and one moiety to
Mosborough. In 1828, the ironstone and timber growing on this estate were sold
for £102, which was laid out in the purchase of land at Bramley Brooks, the
proceeds of which is applied as above.
MOSBOROUGH SCHOOL.—Joseph
Stones, by will, dated 20th May,
1680, devised certain premises and lands, upon trust, to bestow the rents upon
a schoolmaster, for teaching 15 poor children within the Bierlow of Mosborough.
Proceedings were instituted by the Rev. Frederick Ricketts, and five others,
for the purpose of having new trustees appointed and for the removal of the
schoolmaster. Under an order of the Court of Chancery, 6th June, 1822, the
property was vested in Luke Staniforth, Thomas Hutton, and five others, and the
schoolmaster directed to give up possession of the school premises. The
property consists of a dwelling house, homestead, croft and garden, containing
3R. l3P., the school, and a playground of one rood, the great and little Beighton
Hill doses, 4 acres, which were divided by making a turnpike road, let for £14
8s.; the allotment in Street field, 3R. 22P., let for £3 15s.; an allotment on
Mosborough Green made by the award of the Commissioners, 1804, containing 2A.
1R, 23P. let for £10 6s. 7d. When the schoolmaster gave up possession the
buildings were in bad condition, and £131 was expended in building a new
schoolroom and repairs. The costs of the suit in Chancery was £156 8s. 5d.

1823 a new master was appointed with a salary
of £8, the remainder of the rents being reserved for liquidating the above
expenses, for which 15 children of Mosborough are instructed in reading and
writing.
The Rev. Francis Gisborne, in 1817, left £5 10s. per annum, to be expended in
flannel and coarse woollens, and distributed to the poor in winter.
The yearly sum of 19s. from Denham’s
charity, is carried to the account of the poor-rate. (See Clown).
Parish Lands.—At a court baron, in 1680,
Margaret Freeton surrendered to the
churchwardens and overseers for the use of the poor, the land now consisting of
the Nether High Bramley, and the Upper High Bramley. An allotment of 1R. 15P.
was set out to the overseers in respect thereof, at the enclosure. There is also
a field, containing 1A. 1R. 22P. which is let by the parish officers. The rents
of all these lands, amounting to £15 14s. per annum, are carried to the general
account of the overseers.
RENISHAW SCHOOL.—Thomas
Camm, in 1702, surrendered all his copyhold messuages and lands, upon
trust, to cause a school house to be built. He also directed the yearly rents
thereof, except 40s. a year for the repairs of the school, to be given for the
maintenance of a schoolmaster, for instructing poor children of this parish
free. In 1715, George Sitwell gave a
messuage and croft adjoining, on trust, for the use of the schoolmaster,
provided that no person be appointed master without the consent of George
Sitwell or his heirs. Lady Fretchevill bequeathed
£100 to this school. In 1719, this legacy with £20 given by Sir George Sitwell, Bart., to equalize an
exchange of land, was laid out in the purchase of £200 11s. 4d. three per cent.
consols.
Peter Cadman, in 1808, directed his executor to place out on government securities,
a sufficient sum of money to secure £5 per annum, to be given to the free
school at Eckington.
Lost Charities.—There are several benefactions mentioned on a tablet in
the church, formerly given to the poor, which have been lost for many years, as
well as the charities of Thamos and
William Rotherham.

ELMTON parish contains the township of Elmton
and part of the hamlet of Cresswell, which is also in Whitwell parish. The
entire parish comprises an area of 2772A. 0R. 22P. of land, and in 1851 had 80
houses and 435 inhabitants, of whom 244 were males and 191 females; rateable
value £2256 14s. 6d. It forms the eastern boundary of the Scarsdale Hundred, on
the Nottinghamshire border. The soil is principally on lime stone, with a
portion of strong clay, forming a fine agricultural district, having a bold
undulating surface.
ELMTON, is a small village and township
pleasantly situated in an open district, 9 miles E. by N. from Chesterfield; at
the north extremity of the township is a romantic rocky ravine, designated “
Markland’s Grip,” and much admired by Spencer Hall in his “Rural Rides.” The
Duke of Portland is lord of the manor and principal owner, besides which here
are a few small freeholders. The commons situated at the north end of the
village were enclosed in 1849. The Church, dedicated to St. Peter, is a plain
modern stone edifice, with a chancel and low square tower, reaching only a few
feet above the roof which is partly tiled and carried to form a gable. In the
chancel, is a slab with a cross fleury engraved on it and this inscription in
text hand, “Orate pro aia Roberti Berbi.” The living is a vicarage, valued in the King’s book at £5 1s. 3d., now
£120, has been augmented with £200 benefactions; £400 Queen Anne’s bounty; and
£300 parliamentary grant. The Duke of Portland is patron and the Rev. Wm.
Senior Salman M.A., of Shireoaks, incumbent. The vicarage a small ancient
building a little north from the church, is occupied as a cottage. The late
Rev. Mr. Foxlow, of Staveley, left a sum of money for a new vicarage house to
be erected, but on account of the incumbent not residing here it has never taken
place. Here is 1A. 1R. 3P. of glebe land, and the tithes are paid by a rent
charge amounting to about £75. Here is a small day school. Arrangements are now
being made for the erection of a Parochial school, which will shortly take
place; and when built, will give accommodation to about 400 children of both
sexes. It will be open to the inhabitants of the surrounding villages who chose
to send their children to receive instruction. Considering the miserable state
of education both at Elmton and the surrounding neighbourhood, the inhabitants
will not only be glad of such a change, but also happy to find such good
accommodation afforded to their Children. Feast, first Sunday after St. Peter’s
day. This place was formerly celebrated for its elm trees, which surrounded the
churchyard and grounds, and it is most probable that from this the name Elmton
arose, some of the finest elm trees which were ever known to exist have grown
in this village. The trees which surrounded the churchyard have been cut down
by the present incumbent. It is said here formerly was an old Roman encampment
on the site now called the Sand-hill. When the commons were enclosed several
ancient spear heads, some of which were of flint, were found here, also several
old coins, all of which are in the possession of John Brown, Esq. In 1665 the
whole parish of Elmton was let at a sum under £150 per annum.
Elmton Park, now in the occupation of
John Brown, Esq., is a large and commodious residence, situated 1 mile E. from Elmton,
was built by the late Heathcote Rodes, Esq.
ELMTON PARISH. 753
The Park formerly belonged to Thurgarton Priory, Nottinghamshire, and
consisted of the farm now occupied by Mr. Brown, the boundaries of which are
still visible. The present occupier is about making great alterations to the
house, he has also greatly improved the farm, which is now in a state of high
cultivation, and is considered about the best in the district. Whaley Hall, 1
mile S.E. from Elmton, is a good substantial farm residence, the property of
the Duke of Portland and occupied by Mr. Heaton Aldam. This place is noted as
the birthplace of the celebrated arithmetical calculator, Jedediah Buxton, the
son of the schoolmaster of Elmton and grandson of the vicar. He was born in 1707,
and when a child he evinced the moat excessive stupidity and unwillingness to
learn anything, he was a day labourer totally devoid of ordinary education; how
he first became acquainted with the relative proportions of numbers and their
progressive denominations he did not know, but to this he applied the whole
force of his mind, when he once understood a question he began to work with
amazing facility, after his own method without the use of a pen, pencil or
chalk, or even understanding the common rules of arithmetic; he would stride
over a piece of land and calculate the contents of it as if it had been
measured by a chain. In this way he measured the extensive manor of Elmton, and
brought Sir John Rodes the contents, not only in acres, roods, and perches, but
in square inches; and afterwards, for his own amusement, reduced them into
square hairs breadths. On another occasion, a person once proposed to him this
question: in a body, the three sides of which are 23,145,789 yards, 5,642,732
yards, and 54,965 yards, how many cubic eighths of an inch. In about 5 hours he
actually solved this intricate problem, though in the midst of business, and
surrounded by more than one hundred labourers. There is an engraved portrait of
him taken from a drawing made by Miss Hartley, in January, 1764, at which
period according to his own calculations he had existed 1,792,230,823 seconds;
he died in 1777 in his 70th year.
At the Norman
survey they were at Helmetune, a
church and a priest. In the time of Edward III. the Church was given by Ralph
Deincourt, its founder, to Thurgarton priory, Nottinghamshire. The manor at
Domesday survey, belonged to Walter Deincourt, in whose family it continued
till the death of William, Lord Deincourt, in 1442. Ralph, Lord Cromwell, who
married one of his sisters and coheiress, died seized of it in 1454, his sister
and heiress brought it to Sir Wm. Lovell. In 1485 on the attainder of William,
Lord Lovel it was granted to Sir John Savage, and in the reign of Queen
Elizabeth came into the possession of Sir Francis Rodes, in whose family it
remained until 1854, when William Hatfield de Rodes, Esq., sold it to the late
Duke of Portland.
CRESSWELL is a hamlet and scattered village,
being about 1 mile in length; it is situated 2 miles N.E. from Elmton and 10
miles E.N.E. from Chesterfield, the land is principally on limestone, producing
good corn. The Duke of Portland is the principal owner and lord of the manor,
which is freehold, besides several smaller owners. It is said that the manor of
Whitwell extends into Cresswell, which part was given to Welbeck abbey, by
Ralph Cordi. Cresswell is partly in Elmton parish, and partly in Whitwell
parish, the river Wallen dividing the two parishes. Cresswell Crags, a singular
and beautiful assemblage of rocks, near the N.E. extremity of the township, and
on the verge of Nottinghamshire, 3 miles S.W. from Worksop. Lying out of the
way of good roads, and almost inaccessible for carriages, they are not often
visited by tourists, though remarkably curious—consisting of lofty precipitious
rocks, torn by some convulsion of nature into a thousand romantic shapes, and
presenting a minature representation of the more majestic scenery of the
Derwent or Dove. The house now occupied by Mr. James Aldam, is supposed formerly
to have been a Roman Catholic chapel; it is in the Elizabethan style of
architecture, several additions and improvements have been made to it during
the time Mr. Aldam has occupied it; some time ago, whilst repairing the house,
an old constable’s bill was found here, dated the time of Cromwell, also a
piece of silver coin of a date before the time of Christ, the latter of which
was sold during the Exhibition at London, in 1851. Frithwood, 1 mile N.E., is a
good substantial farm residence in the occupation of Messrs. Edward and John
Wilson.

HEATH is a small compact agricultural village
and parish, situate on the Chesterfield and Mansfield road, 4½ miles S.E. from the
former, and 7¾ miles N.W. from the latter. It contains 1608A. 34P. of land, and
in 1851 had 83 houses and 378 inhabitants, of whom 201 were males and 177
females; of this number 30 averaged above 77 years of age; rateable value,
£1850. The Duke of Devonshire is lord of the manor, and owner of 999A. 0R. 5P.
of land. Earl Manvers owns 457A. 0R. 6P.;
and the Exors. of the late Sir Jas. Hunloke 144A. 0R. 23P.; besides which here,
are about 8A. owned by other individuals. The old Church was taken down in 1852,
and the present one erected and consecrated in 1853. It is a small, handsome
stone building, dedicated to All Saints, and has a tower, surmounted by a fine
spire and three bells. It will accommodate about 150, of which 80 sittings are
free. The cost of the building was about £1,350, raised by subscription,
towards which the Duke of Devonshire gave £400 and the site; and a grant of £50
was obtained from the Church Building Society. In the east end of the church is
a handsome stained window representing Christ’s resurrection and ascension. The
living is a vicarage, valued in the
King’s book at £4 18s. 9d., now £174, in the presentation of the Duke of Devonshire,
and incumbency of the Rev. G. H. Arkwright, who resides at the vicarage—a large
handsome mansion, situated about the centre of the village. Here are 5A. of
glebe land, and the tithes have been commuted for £230. Here is a school,
endowed in 1687, with £15 per annum, by the Countess and Earl of Devonshire. It
is a small, neat building, erected in 1821, and is situated a short distance
from the parsonage. The children pay 2d., 4d., and 6d. per week, for
instruction. About 50 attend. The church of Heath, alias Lowne, or Lund, was
given to the Abbey of Croxton, at the time of its foundation, in 1162, and the
great tithes appropriated to that monastry. The advowson was given by Queen
Mary to the burgesses of Derby, but now belongs to the Duke of Devonshire. It
is supposed that it came into the possession of the present proprietor in the
sixth year of the reign of Edward VI., when Mr. Cavendish
KILLAMARSH PARISH. 755
had in exchange for his estates in Hertfordshire several lands and
manors belonging to dissolved priories and abbeys in Derbyshire. The manor was
given by Robert de Ferrers, Earl of Derby, to the monks of Gerondon, in
Leicestershire, and was probably granted to the Earl of Shrewsbury. Owlcotes,
or Oldcotes, a farm house one mile N.W. Here formerly was a noble mansion, one
of the three built by Elizabeth Countess of Shrewsbury. The mansion and estate
passed with one of the Earl of Shrewsbury’s grand-daughters to to the
Pierrepont family, and was in 1673 the seat of George Pierrepont, Esq.,
grandson of the Earl of Kingston. The house was taken down many years ago, and
the estate belongs to Earl Manvers.

Lowe, Mrs. Charlotte Storey, with several others, are also owners. The soil is
various, mostly strong, with a full proportion of arable. The Church, dedicated
to St. Giles, a venerable stone edifice, was formerly in the Norman style, of
which the archway inside the porch is all that now remains. The chancel was
rebuilt in 1846, by the present rector, at a cost of £600.; it is in the late
decorated style. The body of the church is now in the Tudor style of
architecture; it contains nave, chancel, porch, and tower, in which are 6
bells, placed there by the inhabitants. The eastern window is a beautiful
specimen of painted glass, by the celebrated Warrington. The living is a rectory, which was annexed
to the rectory of Eckington, from which it was separated by an Order of
Council, June 10th, 1843, pursuant to the plans of the Ecclesiastical
Commissioners, and was declared to be an independent rectory, and is of the
value of £320, of which £120 is paid by Eckington. It is in the patronage of
the Crown, and incumbency of the Rev. Edward Herbert Smith, B.A. Here are 100
acres of glebe land, and the tithes were commuted in 1844, for £200. An
inscription on a tablet outside the church, states that John Wright, a pauper
of the parish, died May 4th, 1797, in the 103rd year of his age, and that he
was temperate and cheerful, and in the trying situation of darkness, poverty,
and old age, bore his infirmities with such christian meekness as excited the
benevolence of good men,

Thorpe is a small village, ¾ mile S. from the church. This place, Chinewoldemarese, at the Domesday
survey, is described as being in two manors, one of them belonging to Ascot
Musard, the other to the King’s Thanes. In the reign of King John, Hugh de
Dovecote had a manor, and in the following reign, Cecily Meynell; and in that
of Edward II., Hugh son of William de Kinwaldmarsh. At a later period there is
no record of any other manor than that held by the family of Hathersage, which
passed in moieties to the Longfords and Goushills. Sir Ralph Longford died
seized of a moiety in 1513, and Sir William Holles died seized of the other
moiety in 1542. Sir Thomas Holles sold his moiety to Sir Richard Pype and George
Basford. Sir Richard died seized of it in 1587; in 1817 it was the property of
Sir George Sitwell Bart. The Hewitts had considerable property in this parish,
which passed to the Osbornes. This manor was held by the tennre of providing
for the King’s army in Wales, a horse of the value of 5s., with a sack and spur for four days.
CHARITIES.—William Hewitt, in 1599, gave £100 to be invested in land the proceeds thereof to be
expended in bread, and distributed to the poor. The amount was laid out in land,
at Cawthorne, Yorkshire. About the year 1807, the churchwarden and overseer
agreed to exchange this property with Mr. Stanhope, but, at a meeting of the
freeholders and inhabitants, it was resolved this exchange should not be
ratified; and by a decree, 8th May, 1811, the exchange was set aside. The
premises consist of 15A. 2R., let at the rent of £45 per annum. In 1813, timber
on the estate was cut and sold for £365, and £69 18s. 7d. was also due from Mr.
Thomas Ward, as the receiver of the charity. A distribution of sixpenny loaves
is made every week, so as to keep the expenditure nearly equal with the income.
William
Hewitt, in
1480, left a rent-charge of 15s. yearly, out of the town close, which is
distributed with Ward’s charity.
John Ward, in 1669, left £3 12s. per
annum, out of land called Hautcliff, which is paid by Sir Sitwell Reresby
Sitwell, and given to the poor in half-crowns.
John Kay, in 1741, directed ten penny
loaves, three coats and three gowns, to be paid out of his lands called Broad close,
the Delves, and the Boiley close.
Henry Murfin, in 1744, left a rent-charge
of £5, out of the Broomhills,
for a distribution of coats and gowns, to five poor men and five poor women..
Sarah Pole, in 1747, left £30 for a
distribution of bread every Sunday.
Rev. Francis
Gisborne’s charity.—(See Bradley.)
The annnal sum
of £7 10s. received by the incumbent, is laid out in flannel and given to the
poor.
KILLAMARSH SCHOOL—Robert Turie, by will, 1720, gave his house and close, called Six lands, in Killamarsh,
on trust, to apply the profits thereof to instruct six poor children,
KILLAMARSH DIRECTORY. 757
the premises are let for £7 10s. per annum. John Kaye, 1531, gave
a messuage for a school-house, which is now used as a school, and kept in repair
by the parish. Sarah Pole, in 1747,
gave £30 to buy books and teach three poor children to read, at the
Free-school. Phillis Butcher, 1746,
gave £30, the interest to pay for four poor children learning to read and
write. Margaret and Mary Pole, 1753 granted a messuage and
several pieces of land, on trust, for the benefit of the school; one piece was
sold to the Chesterfield Canal Company for £60, which with £30 from Sarah
Pole’s gift was placed in the hands of John Billham, who became insolvent about
1796, afterwards the sum of £68 4s. 3d. was received as dividends, and £56 was
placed in the hands of Sir George Sitwell, at 5 per cent. The income of the
school amounts to £29, part of which is paid to a schoolmaster, who instructs
25 poor children, and the remainder goes for the reparation of four cottages.
