Shepley "Brew" Traditional Cache

Shepley Hall Farm, Shepley Brow, Audenshaw. Shepley Hall was once an elegant mansion with extensive gardens and hothouses. The Shepley family lived there from the fifteenth century until, in the reign of Henry VI, the estate passed by marriage to the Asshetons. In 1821 John Owe bought the estate and it later passed to the Sidebotham family. The estate lay in both Audenshaw and Haughton. Finally a farm was built on the site, but most of the estate has been sold and is now the Shepley Industrial Park.
