Toponymy of Macclesfield

Throughout early history, Macclesfield was located in the ancient 'Hundred' of 'Hamestan'. The town is referred to as 'Maclesfield' in the 1086 Doomsday Book and 'Makeslesfeld' in 1183. The EPNS (English Place-Name Society) believes the toponymy of Macclesfield derives from the Old English words 'Maccel' and 'Field', meaning 'Maccel's' open country. Despite 'Silk Town' appearing as Macclesfield's preferred nickname, its traditional nickname is 'Treacle Town'. 'Treacle Town' refers to a historical event when a cart overturned and split treacle onto the street.

Industrial History of Macclesfield

In 1743, English industrialist Charles Roe founded Macclesfield's first silk mill. By 1832, there were 71 silk mills in the vicinity, employing in excess of 10,000 local workers. Unfortunately, an economic crash in 1852 crippled Macclesfield's silk production, causing many mil-workers to emigrate to America. Macclesfield's silk production continued until the late 1980s, however the silk industry no longer dominated the local economy.
