" The Rosindale arms were the first azure a roebuck rampant, 

 or ; the fourth, or, a roebuck rt. azure, with a rose gules on the 

 shoulder of each. It is worthy of remark that in the arms of 

 Rosindale, in all MSS. in the time of Elizabeth, in Vincent, on 

 Humphrey Lloyd's monument, and as quartered by the Lloyds of 

 Aston (who are direct descendants of this William Rosindale), 

 now, are quarterly four roebucks passant, countercharged of the 

 field or and azure, in one azure and or." 



From all this it would appear without the slightest question or 

 doubt, that Henry Rossyndale of Rosindale, to whom was granted 

 lands in the county of Denbigh, by Henry de Lacy, in the reign 

 of Edward I., was the veritable founder of an important branch of 

 the family of Lloyd. 



Of another member of the same family at Rosindale, Adam de 

 Rosindale, who was probably a brother of Henry, as he also 

 lived during the reign of Edward L, there are interesting records 

 in connection with Hulme Hall, a picturesque residence on the 

 banks of the river Irwell, near Manchester, now destroyed, but of 

 which there are engraved views extant. These views are to be 

 found in Lancashire Illustrated. A side view of the elevation of 

 the Hall, with the bridge and Manchester in the distance, is given 

 in Baines' History of Lancashire, (b) A view also appears in the 

 Penny Magazine (c) ; and the porch or principal entrance, forms 

 the frontispiece to Vol. L of the Palatine Note Book. The same 

 volume contains engravings of grotesque wood carvings contained 

 in this hall, amongst which are " The Philosophic Devil," and
