Raines, Chantries (Chet. Soc), ii, 190–3. The endowment consisted of burgages in Manchester, and tenements in Halifax and Altrincham; the net revenue was 76s. 8d. The priest, John Hall, is named in the Visitation List of 1548, but as mortuus is written against him, he probably died about that time, being succeeded by Lawrence Wallwork. The chapel, as 'newly built,' is mentioned in the wills of Robert Langley of Agecroft and Eleanor his wife.

History Of The Wallwork Surname

The Wallwork surname is a long-established Lancashire name.
It is possible that the Wallwork surname came from Worsley.

The Old Warke Dam area in worsley was shown in old documents and know as "Le Wallwerke" which suggests a deffensive earthwork Wallwork is one of the earliest surnames recorded in documents in Worsley. The area is now know as just Warke. The area of "Le Wallwerke" Old Warke spread from Walkden Road to Mill Brow and from Kempnough brook down to the church and Delf. This was Prior to 1764 when Lord Ellesmere had a map drawn up of all his land and prior to Worsley Old Hall standing on the land. After Worsley Old Hall was built the area then became known as Old Warke.
By 1705 The Cooke's held Old Warke.

There was a William Wallwork recorded on an assize roll in Worlsey in 1278.

That is the earlist Wallwork recorded I have come across to date.


There was a Thomas Wallworke listed as church warden’s for Worsley in 1713 and again in 1714.

Also listed in an Eccles Church Ley for Worsley, cira 1696 was a George Wallworke as having 1 d

Robert Wallwork was a constable of Worsley in 1738 and a surveyor of highways in 1733, 1 737 & 1751
he had 3 sons, Thomas, George & Robert.
Robert Walwerk lived at Mill House in 1697, and had 14 windows.
Robert Wallwork had a cottage at the bottom of Mill Brow and also a cottage at Broadoak in 1764
Robert Wallwork was listed as a church warden in 1716.

Henry Walwerk (Old Warke) had 10 windows in 1697

The name Wallwork can be traced back to the middle ages, and is of Anglo-Saxon origin.

In the Medieval Records of Lancashire the first recorded spelling of the family name was that of:-

Thomas de Wallerwork dated circa 1324

Other recorded spellings and examples of the surname include:-

Wallwork - Walworth - Wallworth - Wallworke - Waleworke

The marriage of James Wallwork and Eleanor Boardman was recorded in Eccles, Lancashire on February 1st 1583

The records show that going back to 1700 our main Wallwork blood line along with the other family branches of Wallwork's were definitely from Lancashire.

Wallwork families were around in areas of Swinton/Pendlebury/Worsley/Clifton/Eccles/Salford/Bolton/Oldham/Prestwich//Manchester during the 1500s

Nathan Walworth - Walworthe - Wallwork - Wallwerk - was born in Ringley Fold in 1572.

William Walwerk held land at Ringley of Sir John Pilkington in 1420

it is also believed that the Wallwork name had connections to surrey.

Wallwork Name Meaning English (Lancashire): habitational name of uncertain origin. Thomas de Wallerwork was living in Lancashire c.1324. Throughout the Middle Ages English forms in -work alternate with ones in -worth, and the surname may derive from places in County Durham or Greater London called Walworth.

Open Letter To The Wallwork Clan - 2001

This letter contains information as it was known in 2001 and is not necasarily true now. This letter is provided for archive purposes only. The more recent 2005 letter can be found here.

The project to search for my ancestors was started in 1999. At first just working on my family line and researching the history of southeast Lancashire, because that was the area my father came from looking for work in 1923. Then widening the search to call in all our kith and kin in the United Kingdom, with surprising results.

I used the I.G.I as a search tool on the internet to find all the Wallwork's in five periods 1535 to 1600 -1650-1700-1750-1800. Based on the parish records of marriages, births and christenings, I discovered that only very few had ventured out of that corner of Lancashire which was the Wallwork heart- land. In the UK census of 1881 you will find 1576 Wallwork's living in Lancashire and only 234 in the rest of England. The 234 are made up of eleven families in Cheshire (just over the boundary) and six families in County Durham. As for the rest they were mostly journeymen, tradesmen, female servants, visitors or boys away at school. Only one man living in Ayr Scotland. The majority of our small tribe lived within a 25 miles radius of the centre of Manchester.

By the way, the 1881 census on CD is a mine full of facts, you can see where families lived, where they were born, what they did for a living, and their marriage status. Every page has a story to tell, some sad, some not. It's all about the Wallwork's! Think of young Frances 7 years old who was an inmate at St Pancreas Industrial School, Leavesden, Watford, Herts. He was listed as a pauper. Then at the other end of the Wallwork's social scale we have Henry Wallwork aged 50, an iron founder employing 150 men and boys. He lived with his wife Mary who was 38 at 261York Cheetham. They had two boys, two girls and domestic servants, was it a sweet life? The next census might tell us!

At this point I would like to discuss the spelling of our name, this is the range I have come across so far:

The earliest was christened Doritye Dorothy WALWORKE on the 26th March 1558 in Radcliff Parish, her father was Elyce Ellce WALWORKE.

WAWORCKE 1558 Manchester
WOLWARKE 1599 Rochdale
WOLORKE 1603 Ormskirk
WALEWORK 1606 Eccles
WALEWORKE 1606 Clifton
WALLWORK 1624 Manchester

WHALLWORK 1782 Ellton
