Description

Childe Of Hale

Carved from a large tree stump and lies by Hale Church. The "Childe" was a man called John Middleton 1578 - 1623 who was very tall and claimed to be over 9 feet but now thought to have been over 7 and a half feet, still a very big man indeed. Worked at the local Speke Hall. He fought the champion of King James I beating him and his fame spread. Died in poverty.
