Nearly 200 years of stories, heritage and history. 🏰
Bolesworth Castle has stood at the heart of the Estate since 1829, when it was built for Manchester businessman George Walmesley.
In 1856, the Castle was purchased by Robert Barbour, who had travelled from Glasgow to Manchester and built a thriving business in the cotton industry. It was the beginning of a family connection with Bolesworth that continues to this day.
Almost two centuries later, the Castle remains at the heart of the Estate - surrounded by generations of stories, changing landscapes and a heritage that continues to shape Bolesworth today.
Nearly 200 years. Countless stories. One very special place. ✨
