Separates with Burnley from Whalley in 1716 and separates under Queen Anne's Bounty in 1741: see Holme in Cliviger
Gastrell (II.ii, 334-5) notes, 'Holm, under Burnley. Cert[ified] that nothing belongs to it. A Sermon [is preached] once a Quarter by [the] Curate of Burnley'. The footnotes elaborate: originally a chantry chapel founded c. 1537, and noted by Camden. In 1650 it was returned as a chapel, but not parochial, 4 miles from Burnley and 11 from Whalley, without any maintenance. 'Having continued without a stated Minister two hundred years [data shows this not quite true], though never reduced to a ruin, it was in the year 1742 again used for Divine Service by the nomination of an Incumbent, although the building was only forty-two feet by eighteen, within'. It was rebuilt in 1788 (more than half paid for by Thomas Whitaker), and consecrated in 1794.
