Henry Hindley was born in Great Harwood, near Blackburn, Lancashire 1699. Little is known about his early life, however by the mid 1720Õs he was making clocks in Wigan where he repaired the church clock in 1720. Hindley moved with his young family (including his son, Joseph born 1728) to the city of York where, after making clocks for the Mansion House and Guildhall, he gained his Freedom of the city in 1732. HindleyÕs talents were such that he equipped his workshop with tools of his own design including an important dividing and wheel cutting engine, a screw cutting lathe and a fusee engine. As well as for domestic clocks Hindley received commissions for many turret clocks including York Minster and supplied a range of scientific instruments including two important equatorial telescopes for the Duke of Norfolk and William Constable. By the 1760Õs HindleyÕs health had deteriorated to the extent that an increasing proportion of the business was handled by his son, Joseph. Henry died in 1771 with his son and successor Joseph unfortunately dying just three years later in 1774.
