Hulme Hall, 1 mile S.W. of Manchester Cross, is and ancient half-timbered house, with an inner court, situated on the S.E. bank of the Irwell, was formerly the property of the Prestwich's, Baronets of Prestwich, a family which lost the greater part of its fortune in the civil wars of Charles I. The last Baronet, Sir John Prestwich, a very ingenious antiquary, died a few years ago, in absolute poverty, and at his death the title became extinct. The Prestwich's sold Hulme Hall to the Blands, from whence it passed to the late George Lloyd, Esq. who sold it to the late Duke of Bridgewater. It is now let off to numerous tenants |

Hylewood, a Danish tumulus, in Broughton Vale, but situated in the township of Pendleton, near the Irwell, 2 miles N.N.W. of Manchester. It derives its name (probably) from having been covered with trees, in the memory of people now living, and, without regard to its venerable origin, it was called the Hill Wood, corrupted to Hylewood. The learned Mr. Whitaker, has taken much pains in his history of Manchester to prove this place a Roman camp, formed for the purpose of defending the cattle in the valley which it commands; but with all deference for authority so respectable, we cannot suppose it any thing than what we have called it. |
