History Past & Present - The Rookery, a Grade II listed former town house, with over 400 years of history buried deep within its fabric. The existing Georgian House incorporates an earlier timber-framed house, which probably dates from the late 16th Century. Nicholas Pevsner describes it as Square and Stately. The Rookery survived the fires of Nantwich (1583) and is believed to stand near the site of the medieval Hospital of St. Nicholas, which gives Hospital Street its name.

History is etched deep into Nantwich's soul. For centuries, before the railways, it stood on the Nations main highway to Wales and Ireland. During the English Civil War Nantwich declared for Parliament and consequently it was besieged several times by Royalist Forces. The final six week long siege was lifted following the victory of the Parliamentary Forces in the Battle of Nantwich on 26th January 1644, which has been reenacted on its anniversary every year since 1973 by the Sealed Knot.

Nantwich is a quaint town characterised by its intriguing winding streets, red brick and half-timbered properties and a sky-line dominated by the spires of the 14th Century St. Marys Church, known as the 'Cathedral of South Cheshire', and considered by some to be one of the finest medieval church's in the whole of England.
