Little Moreton Hall

Friday, we left Somerset and headed north toward the Lake District. We stopped over night in Crewe, after spending the afternoon visiting Little Moreton Hall, a Tudor manor house. The motorway was a welcome relief from winding narrow English country roads. No billboards except at the service areas. We really loved this one.


Little Moreton Hall dates from the early 1500's, although it includes many additions, the last one from the 1600's. All black and white angles, with a little "settling"! Here's the house from the knot garden.



And here's the front of the house.



Finally, we spend the night at Crewe Hall - to add a little "posh" to our holiday!
