| | The House of Lyme (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08) |
 | | Although the Leghs are believed to have had a house on the Lyme estate in the fourteenth century, the present Lyme House was constructed in the sixteenth century by the seventh Sir Piers Legh. |
 | | The muniments relate to the Lancashire estates (the manors of Newton and Golborne, and property in Newton-le-Willows, Golborne, Lowton, Haydock, Ashton-in-Makerfield, Ince-in-Makerfield, Warrington, Burtonwood, Poulton and Fearnhead, Bold, Pemberton and Dalton), and the Cheshire estates (with property in Lyme Handley, Disley, Pott Shrigley, Macclesfield, Grappenhall, Norbury, Marple, and Broomedge and Heatley in Lymm). |
 | | There is considerable material relating to churches and chapels at Newton, Lowton, Warrington, Wigan, Prestbury, and Stockport, and many 17th century letters and papers concerning schools at Winwick, Macclesfield, Norbury, and Disley. |
