Ford Greene is an American lawyer who saves people and deprograms them from false belief systems and cults like Scientology, Moonies, Jehovah's Witnesses, etc. However, Ford Green Hall has absolutely nothing to do with Ford Greene, so ignore that bit. I visited the oldest house in Staffordshire on St. George's Day and there was a Knight there, but no dragon. He may have slain the dragon but there is no evidence in my photos. Note that there is 1 God, 1 Saviour (Jesus Christ) and 1 Good Spirit (Holy Ghost). Therefore, those who do not fear the only God that exists (the Judeo-Christian God), and do not follow Jesus, the only Way to Eternal Life, and those who are not in the Communion of Saints, linked throughout the past, present and future by the Holy Spirit, will have no place on the New Earth, after this vapour of an existence. All dragons, snakes, devils, evil spirits, demons, residual misery, wise women, warlocks, Occultists, Satanists, witches, wicca, those who practise magick, thelemites, wizards, liars, murderers, etc, will all be thrown into the Pit (Jesus will judge everyone's thoughts, words, and deeds and vengeance belongs to the Lord God Almighty). This is TRUE for everyone, whether you believe in God or not. Amen. What was the...
Read moreBeautiful little hall which is furnished and has displays of its history as well as embroidery and clothes of the era. Volunteers also dress in period costume and you can enjoy a refreshment in the little cafe area, though sadly at today's prices.
It's grounds are pretty and attached to a country Park which itself is free entry and allows you to enjoy it's vast walks and lakes at leisure.

I'd recommend to make a full day of all things Tudor to do this place in the morning, enjoy a walk if you wish, then up to Mow Cop Castle as a call-in en route to Little Moreton Hall just 15-20 away. Spend the afternoon there and enjoy lunch at their cafe which is very nice and they too have gardens to enjoy, though much bigger.
I'd say if you are travelling it's far better to make a day of it by doing both halls and a trip up to Mow Cop which overlooks the both from very...
Read moreStunningly beautiful gem of a building tucked away next to a nature reserve in the most unlikely of places! Each of the downstairs rooms were traditionally and tastefully naturally decorated for Christmas which perfectly added to the atmosphere. Wonderful displays of authentic furniture of the period with plenty of interesting and clear information plaques. Very polite, friendly and helpful staff with a quaint little tea room and shop. Free parking for the museum and adjacent nature reserve just a very short walk away with disabled access to the front of the property. The very small admission price was well worth it (I can't believe I had the entire house to myself when I visited!) and I'll definitely be returning with...
