@Katherina Chia - Three years on and with the benefit of the OS Code-Point® Open data, I have finally got around to postcoding the site.
StrollingGuides
Back in 2006 the link was not as obvious as it is now.
Rod Ward
Couldn't Russ Betts have followed the pretty obvious link to the National Trust's page, which gives pretty obvious directions?
Strolling Guide
Yes, well if I've got a week or to when I can find nothing better to do than go through my site adding postcodes to all the locations, I might do it - or I might decide that life's not worth living. In the meantime, you can either use the OS Reference or the latitude and longitude information, or click on the National Trust link and get the postcode from there.

With technology age, one would expect to view a postcode on the Webpage for drivers with SatNat.

I would just like to say Little Moreton Hall is the most beautiful Tudor property I have ever seen. I have not been there for many years after moving out of the area some time ago but if anyone has the chance to visit and also drive a little further to the next town, Astbury I think, there is a fantastic church with the oldest yew tree I've ever seen and a country pub to have lunch at. Absolutely worth it!!!!!

You can order a copy of the guidebook on-line from the National Trust's official web site.

I was considering using Little Morton Hall to do a University project on. After looking on the internet however, there doesnt seem to be a great deal of information on the building or its history etc. Do you have leaflets/brochures/guide books available for purchase on the tours? or any other useful information which I could use? I am considering a visit to the Hall yet would like more information on the place. Many Thanks.

was thinking of taking my elderly mother and tudor mad husband to LMH this sunday, but after reading comments im not sure i should. what with no directions , sounds a bit like "brigadoon" appearing once every 200 hundred years and medieval toilets /guarderobes, and poo that would only interest the time team- think i,ll take the family to tatton park- the worst theyll see there is deer having sex........

It has been some years since I visited Little Moreton Hall (although I do drive past regularly), and maggy's comment "do they have any toilets" just brought it all back to me. I will never forget being guided into the vicinity of the smelly historic toilet (even that was made of wood), and not only informed that centuries old poo was still in there, but that historians suspected some of it might been excreted from the bowels of Sir Francis Drake or even Queen Elizabeth I. It's possible the National Trust guide was winding us poor kids up. =D

Just to confirm we do have toilets at Little Moreton Hall. We have Ladies and Gents toilets within the moated area and one disabled toilet outside the moated area near to our garages. Please ask our Welcome Host (by bridge) or Ticket Office staff to send you in the right direction.

Strolling Guide
Sorry it is over 15 years since I was last at Little Moreton Hall, so I would suggest you contact the National Trust if you want a definitive answer (01260 272018 or email: littlemoretonhall@nationaltrust.org.uk).

We are visiting Little Morton Hall next week, please could you tell me are there toilets there - I have a problem that way, and want to make sure there are some available.
Strolling Guide
@ Mr A Yearsley. Sorry not to reply sooner. No sorry not of any interest to me. @ Carl Hardman. No Sorry. Can't help you there.
Carl Hardman

mr a yearsley

Having been a volunteer at Britain's most illustrious Tudor Elizabethan Town House, Plas Mawr here in Conwy on the North Wales coast I was really excited about my visit to Britain's most complete 16century country home Little Moreton Hall in nearby Cheshire. I was certainly not disappointed and was sorry i could not spend longer. Little Moreton Hall showed its age extreamly well and that amazing wallpaper is a sight i will never forget. Thankfully i purchased the excellent value guide book on my visit last Wednesday and i have been speaking volumes to friends on this amazing house ive just visited. It is very interesting to be able to see the remarkable differences in style in different parts of the country. Welsh 16th century dwellings in North and South Wales look remarkably simlilar. Little Moreton Hall even though its just across the border of Wales looks completely different.

I plan to visit the hall tomorrow. having first learned of it from this website....Many Thanks..and i didnt have any problems finding the directions. I just followed your link to the Trust Site and used the postcode :)

Ordnance survey reference 118:SJ832589 I guess the National have this info as their IP
Strolling Guide
Thanks for your comments. Little Morton Hall is owned and run by the National Trust and the information you are seeking is in their handbook. There is a link on my page to the relevant entry, but perhaps I should make this clearer. Quite frankly until the National Trust accept that the properties are in trust for the whole nation and not just a small middle class elite, I don't really care whether you visit their properties or not. The point you make about the town and county is a valid one. Most of my locations are arranged within a county hierarchy but there are a few odds and sods like Little Morton Hall which don't fit in. Thinking about it, displaying full postal addresses would be useful and wouldn't date, but that would mean a change to my database. I'm sorry you had problems with the Transport Direct site. All I can say is it works for me.
Russ Betts
I don't think much of your website. No indication of which town I need to head for, nor which county it's in. As for trying to find directions to it, Transport Direct gave me four possible destinations, all with the name Morton Hall in them, but not one said Little Morton Hall. Come on. If you want people to visit you, at least make it easy for them, not cause them so much frustration, trying to find information, that they decide they can't be bothered to waste their time. Please note, I' ve just had a go at Ironbridge Gorge, for the self same reason. No instructions for getting there!
