Little Moreton Hall

Travel Information and nearby accommodation

Little Moreton Hall is arguably the finest half-timbered manor in England - certainly it is one of the most heavily photographed! The house is set around three sides of a cobbled courtyard and ringed around by a moat. The half-timbering is fanciful, delightfully ornate. The upper stories of the house project out over the base, and the small windows boast an enjoyable variety of Tudor glass. Little Moreton was built between 1450 and 1580 by the Moreton family, but little remains to preserve their memory. There are no corridors within the house; each room leads directly into the next, and the floors are connected by compact spiral staircases. The lack of interior furnishings allow visitors to see the wonderful plasterwork and wall paintings, including those in the long gallery. A knot garden stands outside the house. more details ...
