Iconic Tudor manor house
‘Logically it should not still be standing up!’
Seeing the tumbling architecture of Little Moreton Hall for the first time, engineers in 1990 could not believe their eyes. Fortunately this timber-framed building, curled around with a scenic moat, has defied logic for over 500 years.
Discover something new
Join in with one of our free guided tours and discover the story of Little Moreton Hall from the first foundations (or lack of) to the present day. Find out about life in the 1600s and discover the root of some common words, including, ‘chairman’ and ‘board-game’.
Knot just a garden
Nestled at the back of the hall is the manicured knot garden. Here you’ll find herbs and vegetables that the Tudors would have used for their cooking and medicines.
We still use produce from our gardens in the Brewhouse Restaurant, where home-cooked cakes, scones and light lunches are served daily.
