by William H. Husk

CHILCOT, Thomas, was organist of the Abbey Church, Bath, from 1733 until late in the last century, and the first master of Thomas Linley, the composer. He produced 'Twelve English Songs, the words by Shakspeare and other celebrated poets;' two sets of harpsichord concertos, and other works. [App. p.586 adds that "he died in Bath, Nov. 1766."]
