Moreton Hall is a private boarding and day school for girls aged 6 months to 18 and boys aged 6 months to 13,[1] situated in North Shropshire four miles from the market town of Oswestry.[2] Founded in 1913, Moreton Hall celebrated its centenary in 2012/13. Much of the early history of the school is unrecorded, but Michael Charlesworth,[3][4] chairman of the Governors for twelve years, wrote the "Story of Moreton Hall"[5] to mark the ninetieth anniversary.
