The hundred of Macclesfield was an ancient division of the historic county of Cheshire, in northern England. 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. In 1361 Edward, the Black Prince was lord of the hundred, manor and borough of Macclesfield.
