Peek inside 14th century Lymm Hall on sale for first time in 100 years

Dating back to the 14th century Lymm Hall on Rectory Lane is a medieval hall and family-owned estate.

Its first occupiers were the de Limme family who would have seen the reign of Edward III who was king from 1327 to 1377.

During this time, the de Limme family owned much of Lymm and lived in Lymm Hall until 1342 when their property was transferred by marriage to the Domville family.

In the 14th or 15th century, the original hall, now known as the Moat House, became too small for the lord of the manor so a new hall was built close by.

The Moat House is one of the properties that remains a part of the current estate.

A new house was built in the Elizabethan period and this forms the basis of the present Lymm Hall, although a number of alterations have been made to the property.

The moated estate, which spans more than nine acres, is compromised of Lymm Hall in the west wing, three apartments in the east wing, the Moat House, Shippon, a coach house and outbuildings.

Also included is a two acre development plot with planning permission for five large detached houses.

This is the first time in more than 100 years that the property has been offered for sale and is currently listed with the Gascoigne Halman office at The Cross in Lymm.
