Tockholes history
Early settlement
Archaeological records for the area in and around Tockholes reveal the presence of Tribal communities as early as 2,000BC. Artifacts found in the area to support early settlement include a stone axe head, bronze spear head and later coins.
13th & 14th centuries
In the first half of the 13th century Tockholes was found to be held in thegnage by a local family of the name of Pleasington for a yearly service of 2s. In 1833 a large pit was discovered in Tockhole located in a field with the official title of “Pit Field”, this field had previously been known locally as Kill Field. In the pit were found the remains of some forty horses along with Cannonballs, Clubs and Large Buttons. A battle in which at least forty horses were killed must have been quite a fierce one for such a small village.
20th Century to Present
Hollinshead Hall, the former Tockholes manor house and what may be an older Manor house can be found on the road from the centre of the village known as Top o’t Low. The Chapel situated at the bottom of Long Lane was one of the earliest Congregational Chapels in Lancashire though not in the present building.
