There is much local interest in the Dale family’s residence at Little Moreton Hall, largely because Dale is such a common name in the locality.

Many people still living around the Cheshire and North Staffordshire border have connections to this large farming family.

Consisting of Thomas and Ann and their 14 children, the Dale family rented Little Moreton Hall from about 1880 to 1955, first as tenants under the Moretons and then as caretakers for the National Trust.

The Hall was at the centre of a working farm during this time.

After 1913, the house was open to the public and the Dales gave tours and served teas to the public from 9am until dusk, every day, all year. (NT website)
