Property description & features
History - The earliest evidence of human occupation at sites near to Pott Shrigley are the Bronze Age bowl barrows at Nab Head, approximately 0.34 miles (0.6 km) south-west of the village; and the Bronze Age barrow at the summit of Sponds Hill.
In the early Middle Ages settlements grew up at Shrigley, Pott & others such as Birchencliffe. During the reign of the Plantagenet kings these lands become part of the Royal Forest of Macclesfield. Nab Wood, part of the land for sale, is the last remaining part of the forest that still exists.
An extract from notes on the history of the parish of Pott Shrigley states that 'A great nephew of William the Conqueror called Horswin was granted a part of Macclesfield Forest, and the title: 'Lord of Shrigley'.' The two hamlets were possibly combined in 1354 to Pott Shrigley.
With such history and in such beautiful surroundings, Pott Shrigley can look forward to remaining a truly desirable village.
Bollington & Shrigley Golf Course - The Bollington & Shrigley golf course opened in 1907 & lasted until the Edwardian days. The course was quite a test of endurance, ending up at the 19th hole in the Clubhouse, then Woodbine Cottage, the dining room of which was the bar! The cricket club was later built on part of the golf course in 1919.
Peak District National Park & Conservation Area - The Peak District National Park is the first of Britain's 15 national parks as it was founded in 1951.
The Pott Shrigley Conservation Area Appraisal was adopted at the Peak District National Park Authority's Planning Committee in 2015. This includes the land being sold.
A Conservation Area is defined as an area of 'special architectural or historic interest, the character or appearance of which it is desirable to preserve or enhance'

Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s
The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2
Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength
Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
