Introduction
Limefield House has a house with a small park bounded by Walmersley Road to the east, Pigs Lee Brook to the north and west and open fields to the south. Limefield Cotton Mills lie adjacent to the site to the east of Walmersley Road. This is an irregular site, with the house in a central position towards the eastern boundary. The pleasure ground to the south-east corner of the site was much simplified by the 1890s, when the surrounding area was beginning to be developed. The area has now been developed for housing.
