which was owned before the Conquest by the Saxon Earl Edwin and then by Hugh Lupus, Earl of Chester and nephew of William the Conqueror, who inherited the family passion for hunting. In those days, the estate was located within the Royal Forest of Macclesfield, a famous hunting venue that, in its heyday, stretched from Macclesfield to the Mersey.

After two sieges and several years of neglect, the house was in desperate need of repair and the restoration that followed included the addition of the present north front of the house, which dates from about 1660.

Col Legh died in 1689 and was succeeded by his eldest son, another Thomas, whose reign at Adlington was brief. According to a diary preserved at nearby Tabley House, Knutsford, on April 6, 1691: ‘Col Legh, of Adlington, layning on a raile in Adlington, which breaking he fell and broak his neck and died.’ He was followed by his eldest

During the Civil War, Adlington was held for the Crown by Thomas’s grandson, Col Thomas Legh, and twice besieged by Parliamentary forces. He was succeeded by his eldest son, Col Thomas Legh the younger, whose estates were confiscated after the Civil War, but eventually restored to him in 1656.

In the late 1400s, the hunting lodge at Adlington was replaced by the original Adlington Hall, built by Thomas de Legh between 1480 and 1505. The next stage in the development of the house was carried out by Thomas’s great-grandson, also Thomas, who was High Sheriff of Cheshire in 1588. By 1581, he had refaced the hall, added the porch and built the range of half-timbered, black-and-white buildings that fill part of

He began by filling in the open west side of the quadrangle with a wing containing a staircase, dining room, drawing room, library and ballroom, which was completed by about 1749. He then replaced the buildings on the south side of the quadrangle with a range connecting his new west wing with the old east wing. At either end of the south front were projecting bays, demolished in 1929 when the size of the house was considerably curtailed.

When enlarging the house, Legh also built the Grade II*-listed stable courtyard to the east of the hall and extensively remodelled the park and gardens, also listed Grade II*, creating a formal water garden to the north,

Alex Lawson of Savills comments: ‘What is significant about the sale of the Adlington Estate is that it is a complete country estate with real historic provenance, including an important, Grade I-listed hall that has been in the same family for 700 years. This is doubly rare in Cheshire, where nothing of similar scale has been seen on the market in decades. In fact, according to our records, only one farm of more than 1,000 acres has been seen on the open market since 1995.’

a guide price of £2.75m for the traditional former farmstead, which has been lovingly renovated by the current owners. According to Mr Cheshire, they ‘have done as much to the outside as to the inside’, installing a new kitchen in the 8,475sq ft house (which boasts five reception rooms, six bedrooms and six bath/shower rooms), converting a traditional barn into an indoor swimming pool and gym and adding a new tennis court and pavilion.

From deep borders to generous fruit orchards, elegant topiary and botanical terraces, these country houses offer the prettiest of gardens

Described as a typical Wiltshire farmhouse and set within the North Wessex Downs AONB between Swindon and Marlborough, within humming distance of the M4, fourbedroom Medbourne House has pretty gardens of just under an acre that are ‘a major feature of the property,’ according to agents. The front garden is mainly laid to lawn, bordered by a wall with an Ilex koehneana hedge, and there is a variety of mature trees and shrubberies, with box hedges believed to be about 100 years old. The owners have established a productive vegetable garden, too, which includes a fruit cage and various fruit trees. Behind the house is a further garden with areas of lawn and terrace, together with a summerhouse and a useful potting shed. Knight Frank (01488 688547)

Believed to be the largest Devon longhouse in the country and built in 1802, this property has been divided into three houses, with four-bedroom Heathfield Down House situated at one end (it also comes with a two-bedroom annexe). Positioned just outside the village of Modbury in south Devon, the gardens are ‘arguably the jewel in its crown,’ according to selling agents Marchand Petit. These are made up of lawn and terrace, areas of shade and sun, borders, beds, shrubs and a covered vegetable garden—all of which have been ‘fastidiously cared for’ by the current owners. A paddock of about four acres (currently grazed by sheep, but suitable for horses and ponies) sits immediately above the garden. Marchand Petit (01548 831163)

Corsican pine was first introduced to the UK in 1759, with the timber being used for railway sleepers and pit props, but at Chilton, near the market town of Cleobury Mortimer, these straighttrunked giants flank the long, sweeping drive. A nine-bedroom house that dates back to the 1600s with a Georgian façade, Chilton sits in the open rolling countryside of the River Rea valley. The gardens are extensive and are ‘a particular feature of the prop erty, providing a variety of areas within which to sit and enjoy the surround ings,’ says selling agent Joe Martin of Strutt & Parker. Alongside lawns, paved areas and a grass tennis court, there is a productive vegetable garden, a greenhouse and a workshop. Strutt & Parker (01584 873711)

Henham Green Farm, which enjoys a secluded position in a quiet hamlet a short drive from the Suffolk coast, is Grade II listed and dates back to the 17th century.

The swimming pool has a heat pump, as well as a semi-telescopic enclosure, which allows it to be used during the cooler months. The current owners have installed several environmentally friendly measures, including solar and photovoltaic panels, a biomass boiler that supplies hot water and heating for the house and an EV charging point.

This one, which was built by a former High Sheriff for his son, a local rector, comes with particularly charming walled vegetable gardens, a heated swimming pool and views over open countryside. The house has six bedrooms, an orangery and a large kitchen/breakfast room with doors opening out into a courtyard; it’s all been subject to a recent renovation and is ‘entirely ready to move into’. As an added attraction, an outbuilding next to the garage has been converted into a home cinema and gym. Savills (01245 293233)
