Description
Research and recording carried out by the Cheshire Gardens Trust at Kermincham Hall
Summary:
The early eighteenth century brick wall around a former deer park is the site’s most important feature. More than one mile long, the wall retains many of its original triangular coping bricks and is nearly complete - a rare survival in Cheshire, but not listed.
The associated hall, seat of the Mainwarings since C15, was demolished in the 1850s.
Principal features remaining:
c. 1718:
• Brick walls around former deer park and hall1
• Gatehouse and gate piers
• Stables and dovecote
• Vestiges of historic landscape: straight avenue, series of pools, garden area
c. 1850s:
• Kermincham Hall farmhouse
• Pond
