Historical Description

EASINGWOLD is a market and union town and head of a county court district, and a parish, having a terminal station of the Easingwold Railway Co. (opened in 1891), 3 miles east from Alne station on the main line of the North Eastern railway, 13 north-north-west from York, 10 west-north-west from Boroughbridge, 10 south-east from Thirsk, 12 south-west from Helmsley and 209 from London; it is in the Thirsk and Malton division of the Riding, wapentake of Bulmer, petty sessional division of Bulmer West, rural deanery of Easingwold, archdeaconry of Cleveland and diocese of York. The town is pleasantly seated in the vale of York, on the western side of the Howardian hills, at the foot of the terminating point of Hambleton, and towards the verge of the great Forest of Galtres. The buildings are mostly of brick, a few being constructed of timber and plaster, and one of these, still existing in spring street, bears the inscription, “God with us, 1664.” The town is supplied with water from works at Hanover, about 2 miles north of the town, under the control of the Rural District Council. The town is lighted with gas from works in Long street, erected in 1857, and belonging to a company. The church of All Saints and St. John the Baptist occupies a pleasant site at the top of a gentle ascent on the north side of the town, an avenue of trees leading to the gates of the churchyard: it is a building of stone in the Decorated style of the early 14th century, and consists of chancel, nave with clerestory, aisles, south porch and an embattled western tower containing a clock and 6 bells, the 6th having been hung in commemoration of the Jubilee of H.M. Queen Victoria (1887): a new organ and organ chamber were given in 1903 by Mrs. Love, of Hawkhills: a new pulpit and choir stalls were presented in 1906 in memory of Miss Annie Constance Robinson and some of her relatives: the stained east window is a memorial to the Revs. J. Armitstead, vicar 1771—1812, Edmund Paley, vicar 1812—39, and Samuel James Allen, vicar from 1839 to 1856, and also to George Armitstead, merchant, who died in 1848; there are also five other memorial windows, including one to Mrs. Eleanor Westerman, founder of the Free school of the town, d. 1783, and some to the Clough, Johnson, Driffield and Robinson families: in the church is preserved an old coffin, very black with age, but in remarkably good condition: the church was restored in 1858, and affords about 600 sittings.

The Catholic church, dedicated to St. John, was erected in 1830 and opened 21 Nov. 1833, and is a building in the Early English style; it contains a stone altar, the gift in 1870 of Mrs. Stapylton, of Myton Hall. Attached is a burial ground. The mission formerly at Crayke and Oulston represents the old Catholic chaplaincy of the Viscounts Fauconberg, of Newburgh Priory, and still possesses some pre-Reformation vestments.

Here is an extensive steam corn and flour mill, a tannery and brick kilns. The market place is a square of about two acres, and near its centre stands the market cross, a covered structure supported by four metal columns. The market is held every Friday; the chief business done is in corn, butter, eggs and poultry. St. Monica’s Cottage Hospital, a structure of brick, was built in 1893 by Mrs. Love, of The Hawkhills: it is now supported by voluntary contributions and is available for the parishes comprised in the Easingwold Rural District: the hospital contains eight beds; the average yearly number of in-patients is 60. Shaw, the Lifeguardsman, who so distinguished himself at Waterloo, served his apprenticeship here to a blacksmith; he is said to have carried destruction to every Frenchman against whom he rode, and after having slain many of the enemy’s Cuirassiers, died from loss of blood at the close of the day, owing to the numerous wounds he had received.

SCHOOLS

The Grammar school was originally endowed by Mrs. Eleanor Westerman, who by will, dated August 24, 1781, gave the dividends on £2,500 Reduced Annuities, of which £54 12s. were to be paid to a schoolmaster (who must be a member of the Church of England) for teaching 30 boys Latin, English grammar, reading, writing, arithmetic & bookkeeping, & also 30 girls reading, writing & arithmetic; the endowment included £10 for house rent, coals & candles, £8 8s. for books, pens, ink & stationery; £2 to the minister for preaching a sermon on the 26th of May before the children, on the benefit of early piety, & another on the 1st of September, on some moral object; the schoolmaster to attend with the children upon these days also on Sundays, Wednesdays & Fridays in each week, at the parish church. In 1876 the original scheme was revised by the Charity Commissioners, & the school was constituted a grammar school for boys & had 5 free entrance scholarships, awarded annually in July. In 1911 the school was taken over by the County Council, when new buildings were erected & a playing field was provided in Thirsk road, at a cost of over £3,000: it is now conducted as a rural secondary school: there are now (1913) 70 pupils. The chairman of the governors is Henry Hawking esq. J.P.
