I once visited here for a Primary school trip. This is an amateur drama group/theatre group where…read morelocals perform well-known plays as well as new plays. The actors are usually quite good for being amateurs and the actual theatre stage itself is a very good place to watch the productions. For primary schools, the trip usually involves drama work in groups with the actors in the plays being tutors. Normally a good school trip out for the younger years.

Not for all walks of life but is a lovely day out for most. Its a large black and white Tudor house…read more(forgive me if the time periods wrong I'm not so good with history!) just off the A34. You park in the wooded car park and cross a lovely little bridge to get to the main grounds themselves. There is a little river that passes around the house with fish and ducks you can spot which are a good turning point for young children. You then enter a square where you can notice the fantastic old craftmenship on the outside of the building. The cobbled square houses the icecream stall, national trust shop and toilets. There are tours offered around the house however you can walk around in your own time if you wanted. Tour guides are usually dressed in costume (there are numbers of costume days throughout the year) to add to the atmosphere. Inside is as beautiful as the outside with the fabolous stain glass windows and original tudor furniture. The top floor has a large room which used to be a drawing/play room. The floor in this is famously uneven so be aware its not your legs that have given way below you! The grounds also hold outdoor theatre nights in tradition of the historical era it represents hosting particular favourites such as Romeo & Juliet. These are lovely to watch just difficult to prepare for in the British weather!

I really like Little Moreton hall, becuase its a real piece of history, and its in gorgeous…read moresettings. it looks a little rickety and you do often worry if you're going to be that last person who puts too much pressure on it and it falls down, but so far its been safe! The gardens and moat all around the Hall are as attractive as the property itself. It is a national trust property, and is located near to Congleton on the A34. However depite being near to a busy road, you cant really hear much of the traffic because its set back quite a way. Especially nice to walk around on a warm summers day when all the birds are flying around, making you actually feel a little like an elizabethan wandering around the grounds.
