By the Elizabeth period, Dunham Massey Castle had been demolished. Probably during the medieval period, Dunham Massey Hall became the home of the manorial lord, and a centre of power in the area. The hall was rebuilt in 1616, leaving no remains of the old medieval manor house.

The Booth family inherited most of the Massey family land in 1409, with Dunham Massey remaining at the heart of the estate. (Day 3 of 4)

The name Dunham is derived from the Anglo-Saxon dun, meaning hill. The Massey element of the name is a result of its ownership by the Massey family. The manor of Dunham is recorded in the Domesday Book of 1086 as having belonged to Aelfward, a Saxon thegn, before the Norman Conquest and to Hamo de Masci afterwards. The Barons de Masci also had control over the manors of Baguley, Bowdon, Hale, Partington, and Timperley.

When appreciating trees, I sometimes have to remind myself not to forget the bark. The colour, the texture - and in the case of this Tibetan Cherry (prunus serrula) giving the impression it’s whirling around. #trees. #TibetanCherry. #PrunusSerrula. #NationalTrust. #DunhamMassey

I don't know the name of this rose, but I like the beauty of the late bloom, with a touch of winter decay #rose #roses #RoseWednesday #DunhamMassey #floweradventcalendar

I don't tend to post pictures of roses this late in the year, but 'Lady of Shalott' was making such a valiant effort in the gloom of late November #DunhamMassey #RoseWednesday #GardeningMastodon
