Description

De oorsprong van de huidige borg ligt eind veertiende, begin vijftiende eeuw. Aangenomen wordt dat op dezelfde plaats al een steenhuis heeft gestaan. In een gevelsteen uit 1614 staat namelijk "Anno 1400 is Menckemahuis vernelt. Anno 1614 dorch Gods gnade gereparert." Rond dezelfde tijd werden meer borgen vernield, wat erop wijst dat deze bewering waarschijnlijk kan zijn. Mogelijk betreft dit 'Menckemahuis' echter ook een ander steenhuis, bijvoorbeeld Aylbada. De eerste Menkema die wordt genoemd is redger Eppo Menkema in 1376. De enige andere Menkema's die worden genoemd zijn Rypke Mennekumma en Eylart Menckema .
