History
Behind this hedge is Baden Hall, which was "Badehale" in 1086 when it was registered in the Doomsday Book. It was part of the lands of the Bishop of Chester in this area, along with Cold Meece and others. Judging from the presence of the hall here on a brook, there's a good chance that it was a fishery way back then.
Fast forward to the restoration in the late 1600s and today's Baden Hall gets built, a grand farmhouse that is largely still standing, albeit vastly re-organised by the Victorians and then re-fashioned again in the 20th Century. If you get a chance to look around the fishery, be sure to look more at the building that the fish, eh? And imagine people a thousand years ago doing exactly the same thing!
