[1] A manor house and estate at Lymm once owned by the de Limm family came into the possession of the Domville family by marriage in 1342, when Robert Domville married Agnes, daughter of Thomas de Legh.
In about 1840, stepped gables and mullioned windows were installed, resulting in a symmetrical front in neo-Jacobean style.
The estate eventually passed into the hands of the Reverend Mascie Domville Taylor and on his death in 1846 was sold piecemeal.
The Hall and Moat House together with the adjacent buildings have been in the ownership of the Cottrill family since the early 1900s.
[1] Lymm Hall is approached by a bridge over a moat (now dry) that dates probably from the middle of the 17th century.
[5] The former stables, probably dating from the early 17th century, have been converted into a house, and are also listed at Grade II.
A replacement structure was built on a new site, this time to the east of the Hall, though was destroyed by fire in an apparent deliberate act of arson in the early 21st century.
