By Charles Eamer Kempe (1837-1907).
Detail: Crucifixtion.
Charles Eamer Kempe was a painter of walls, ceilings and woodwork of churches in the 1860s. The style then in vogue reflected a resurgence of interest to high church practices. Kempe's training served him well, and he started his own stained glass company, CE Kempe and Co in London, in 1868. He was not a trained artist, but was nevertheless artistic, and able to suggest ideas which could be developed by his artists and cartoonists. He insisted that only the firm's name should take the credit for the standard of work produced, and that individual members of the studio remain anonymous.
Kempe perfected the use of silver stain on clear glass, which leaves a yellow tint, which could be delicate or deep depending on the amount of stain. His greatest stylistic influence was the stained glass of Northern Germany and Flanders from the 16th Century. He took many trips to Europe, often taking the Kempe Company artists with him. The insignia of Kempe, from about 1895 until his death in 1907 was a wheatsheaf, from his family's coat of arms. After his death, the firm was run by four of his directors, including his cousin, Walter Tower. The insignia then changed to a wheatsheaf with a black tower.

A church has stood on this site for over 900 years. The first was reduced to rubble during the Norman Conquest of 1066. French monks rebuilt the church and established a Benedictine priory here in 1098. Disaster struck when a fire that raged through York in 1137 damaged the church. The priory lost its lands and buildings during the Dissolution of the Monasteries in 1536, but was allowed to continue as a parish church. The stocks from the churchyard dating from the 18th century have been restored and are now on display as part of the Monks of Micklegate exhibition inside the church. A replica of the stocks can be seen as you enter the churchyard.

Monument to Thomas and Catherine Wilson. Marble. Thomas Scheemakers, 1774.
A grieving putto extinguishes a torch (a symbol of death) while wiping away a tear as he leans on a large coloured urn. He stands in front of a striking black obelisk, framed by acanthus and flaming urns, with the inscription under the ledge. This records the dedication to Thomas and Catherine Wilson, whose funerary slab gives the dates of their deaths, hers in 1770 his in 1774, and adds that he had been the church’s vicar for over forty years. Thomas Scheemakers (1740-1808) had trained with his father Peter, and on his father’s retirement to Antwerp took over the workshop, here the design and the treatment of the mourning putto follow his father’s example.

The Act 4 &5 Vict. c.9, of 1841, had partially carried into effect Rector Hornby's plan to subdivide Winwick Parish by raising Croft, Newton and Culcheth to the status of rectories endowed with the tithes of their separate districts, and by making Newton a chapelry with an assigned district. It was now provided that, as from 21 July 1845, that part of the Township of Ashton-in-Makerfield called “the Town End” (defined in s.16 of the 1845 Act) and the entirety of the Township of Haydock would form a separate Parish and Vicarage to be called “the Parish and Vicarage of St. Thomas, in Ashton-in-Makerfield”. The existing Church of St Thomas in Ashton would be the Parish Church, and would be endowed with the Tithes of Haydock. By the same Act, the remainder of Ashton was constituted a separate Parish and Rectory of which the Parish Church would be Holy Trinity. The new Parish and Rectory of Ashton in Makerfield was endowed with the Tithes of the Township, subject to a perpetual annual payment of £50 to the Vicar of St Thomas's. The Rector of Ashton was to be the Patron of St. Thomas's:-
“XIII. And be it enacted, that from and after the passing of this Act the whole of the said Township of Ashton-in-Makerfield (except that Part which is called the Town End) shall form the said Parish and Rectory of Ashton-in-Makerfield, and shall be called by the Name of the Parish and Rectory of Ashton-in-Makerfield; and that the Church of Holy Trinity in the said Township of Ashton-in-Makerfield shall be the Parish Church of such Parish and rectory; and that the Reverend Harold Hopley Sherlock, the present Incumbent of such Church, shall be the Rector of such new Parish and Rectory, without any fresh Presentation, Institution, or Induction, or other Form of Law, being had, observed, or required; and all the Tithes, or Commutations in lieu thereof, (subject as hereinafter provided,) arising and accruing out of the whole of the said Township of Ashton-in-Makerfield, shall belong and be paid to the Rector thereof for the Time being; but such Tithe and Tithe Rents shall be forever thereafter charged with the Payment to the Vicar of St Thomas's Church in the said Township … of the annual Sum of Fifty Pounds heretofore charged upon the Tithes of the Rectory of Winwick...; and such Tithe or Tithe Rents or other Emoluments with which the said Parish and Rectory of Ashton-in-Makerfield is by this Act endowed shall, during the Incumbency of the Reverend Edmund Sibson as Incumbent of the said Church of St Thomas..., be subject to the Payment to the said Edmund Sibson … of Such Proportion of the said Tithes [etc] as are mentioned and declared in the … Act [4 & 5 Vict. c. 9] as payable to the said Edmund Sibson if the said Township of Ashton-in-Makerfield had been created during the Incumbency of the said Edmund Sibson a distinct Rectory under the Provisions of such Act.
XIV.

XV. And be it enacted, That from and after the passing of this Act that Part of the said Township of Ashton-in-Makerfield which is called the Town End, and the whole of the said Township of Haydock, shall form a separate Parish and Vicarage, and shall be called the Parish and Vicarage of St Thomas in Ashton-in-Makerfield, and that the present Church of St Thomas in Ashton-in-Makerfield shall be the Parish Church of such Parish and Vicarage.
XVI. And be it enacted, That for the Purposes of this Act the said Town End of Ashton-in-Makerfield shall comprise and consist of all such Parts of the said Township of Ashton-in-Makerfield as shall lie to the Southward of a Line to be drawn as follows; (that is to say,) beginning at a Place where the Boundary between the said Township of Ashton-in-Makerfield and the said Township of Haydock crosses a certain lane called Millfield Lane; thence proceeding along the Centre of the said Lane to a certain other Lane in Ashton-in-Makerfield aforesaid, called Dock Lane*; thence proceeding eastwardly along the Centre of such last-mentioned Lane to a Brook which crosses the same Lane about Sixty-five Yards beyond the Fourth Milestone from Saint Helens; thence crossing the same Lane to the North-easterly Abutment of a Bridge which crosses the said Brook; thence proceeding in a straight Direction to a Mere Stone standing in a certain other Lane in Ashton-in-Makerfield aforesaid, called Nichol Lane, near a Place where a public Footway enters the same Lane; thence proceeding along the Centre of such last-mentioned Lane to another Lane in Ashton-in-Makerfield aforesaid, called Long Lane**; thence proceeding along the Centre of the lastly-mentioned Lane to another Lane in Ashton-in-Makerfield aforesaid, called the Brynn Lane***; thence proceeding along the Centre of such last-mentioned Lane to a Place where a certain Brook called Coffin Lane Brook crosses the same Lane; and thence following the Line of the said Brook in an Eastwardly Direction until it reaches the Boundary of the said Township of Ashton-in-Makerfield...

Further provision was made (ss.20 and 22-23) for the eventuality that a new church or churches might in future be built “in the said Parish of Ashton-in-Makerfield, or in the said Parish of Saint Thomas in Ashton”, for entitlement to Pew Rents (s.25) and for the allocation of Haydock tithes (ss. 18 and 21).
The Act also dealt with the statuses of Kenyon and Culcheth, and Golborne and Lowton.
*“Dock Lane” - part of what is now the A58/Liverpool Road.
**“Long Lane” - now called Bryn Road.
***“Brynn Lane” - no longer exists as such. The western end corresponded roughly with the southern portion of present-day Lockett Road where it joins Bryn Road. The eastern end connected with Bryn Gates Lane near Bryn Hall.
In 1865 the Ashton in Makerfield and St Thomas' parishes were transferred from Winwick to Wigan Deanery. On 9 April 1880 the Diocese of Liverpool, which included the Wigan Deanery, was formed from part of the Diocese of Chester.

John Ward Knowles was a York-based stained-glass manufacturer, and commentator on local art and music. After training in art, Knowles dabbled in photography. On his marriage in 1874 he moved to Stonegate in York, to the old ‘Sign of the Bible’, which then became his family home for the next 120 years.
The building still retains much of Knowles’ work, installed when he lived there, including a collection of late Victorian and Edwardian stained glass. Knowles continued to live and work there until his death at the age of 93 and his sons continued the business until 1953.
