Warning Notice at Booths Mere
The accompanying map is headed 'boothsmere swim map', and illustrates 17 red markers around the notional periphery of the lake, anticlockwise. Whether this is to help or discourage swimmers is unclear. Since the water is said to average 4 feet in depth, it would not appear to be a particular hazard. There are fishing club licences to be had in Altrincham so perhaps swimming is detrimental to the fish.

At Booths Park, Knutsford (2)
Norbury Booths (or ‘Bothes’) Hall, Over Knutsford: seat of the Leghs of Booths, built in 1745 to replace an earlier timber framed house.
The Legh family have been prominent landowners in Cheshire for generations past: note also their connection to Lyme Park, Addlington Hall, and High Legh.
John de Legh of Bothes is known to have purchased the land here, now known as ‘Booths Park’, around 1300, in the reign of Edward I, first son of Henry III.
Also possibly associated with this era are the remains of an oval moat, adjacent to Booths Farm, which could have been the site of an early manor house.
