28 March 2010 - Little Moreton Hall

A detour on our journey south to stop at the National Trust property

First sighting of the Hall on the approach from the car park. The Hall is a 15th century moated half-timbered manor house.

The main entrance.

The courtyard.

The gabled windows on the upper floors.

A closer look at one of the many carved figures in the woodwork.

At the top of the Hall is the 68 foot long gallery.

A few views through the glazing in the long gallery.

One of the windows in the great hall which was made by the carpenter Richard Dale.

The great hall which is the oldest part of the house and was built for Sir Richard de Moreton in about 1450.
