This report presents the results of an archaeological building survey of Hulme Hall, Cheadle Hulme, Stockport, carried out by the University of Manchester Archaeological Unit and commissioned by NPS Property Consultants Ltd on behalf of Stockport MBC

"Historically Hulme Hall lay within the township of Cheadle Moseley, one of two townships into which the ancient manor of Cheadle was divided. In or shortly before 1321 Sir Roger de Chedle, lord of the manor, died leaving no male heirs. The manor passed to his wife but after her death in 1326 was divided between their two daughters. The younger, Agnes, was married to Richard de Bulkelegh. Their share, known as Cheadle Bulkeley, descended through the Bulkeley family until the 18th century when it was sold off to pay the family’s debts. The elder daughter, Clemence, was married to William de Bagylegh. In the mid-17th century this second share of the manor was acquired by the Mosley family whose tenure, though brief, gave it the name of Cheadle Moseley (Arrowsmith 1997, 36)."[1]
