Listed buildings in Macclesfield

This industry grew with the building of more mills, and of houses incorporating weavers' garrets on the top floor, with large windows to light them.

The mills were initially supplied with power from horses, or from the River Bollin, which ran through the town.

With the coming of the Victorian era the architectural style of the churches and public buildings changed from Neoclassical and Georgian to Gothic Revival.

The construction of the Macclesfield Canal resulted in a number of associated structures that have been listed, including eight bridges and a milestone.

The only listed buildings dating from the 20th century are the War Memorial, and a pair of telephone kiosks in front of the Town Hall.
