It was known to have been in existence at least as early as 1242, and it was formed to a great extent from the earlier Domesday hundred of Hamestan.[1][2] In 1361 Edward, the Black Prince was lord of the hundred, manor and borough of Macclesfield.[3] ParishesUntil 1866 the Hundred of Macclesfield contain the following eight ancient parishes:

CourtsCourts, or Eyres, were normally held annually in the region, a week after the close of the County Court. The Justice of Chester presided over the courts, and he would spend several days visiting each hundred in the region. See also
