Statue of John Middleton

2025: "Hale is a village and civil parish in the Borough of Halton, Cheshire, England with a population of 1,800.[1] The village is north of the River Mersey, and just to the east of the boundary with Merseyside. It is 3 miles east of Speke in Liverpool, and 4 miles south-west of Widnes. The nearby village of Halebank is to the north-east.

Within the boundaries of the historic county of Lancashire, until 1 April 1974 the area formed part of the Whiston Rural District. 

• John Middleton (1578–1623), the Childe of Hale, was reputed to be nine feet, three inches tall, or 2.8 m. His cottage and grave are located in the village. Just outside St Mary's Church was a wooden carving of the Childe Of Hale that is said to have been life-sized. It was replaced in 2013 by a 3-metre bronze statue by sculptor Diane Gorvin.[6]
• Audrey Withers (1905–2001), editor of Vogue between 1940 and 1960, was born in Hale, where her father was a local doctor.[7]
• Charles Peter Fleetwood-Hesketh (1905–1985), (usually known as Peter Fleetwood-Hesketh), was the last "lord of the manor" of Hale, and resided at The Manor House, Hale from 1947 to 1985. An architect and architectural historian, he served in the Second World War, partly in co-ordination with the Maquis (guerrilla fighters) in occupied France.[8]
• Jermaine Pennant (born 1983), former Liverpool footballer lived in Hale.[9]  "
