Description:
External view of Dunham Massey House [rear side view]. The house is surrounded by park land, mature trees and an extensive lake. Clearly visible is a grass covered mound behind the lake's low retaining wall. There is a bridge from the mound across the water. In the background is a partially hidden brick built building. Dunham Massey House is situated towards the north end of the park. A house was constructed by Sir George Booth on a moated platform in the early part of the C17, probably on or close to the site of an existing building, and this was completed by his grandson towards the middle of the century. It was substantially rebuilt to the designs of John Norris in 1731-40 for the 2nd Earl of Warrington. On the 2nd Earl's death in 1758 the house passed through marriage to the earls of Stamford. . The mound could be the remains of a motte forming part of Hamo de Massey's castle which was recorded in 1173 and again in 1323, reused as a viewing mound in the C17.
