Home Farm is situated off Hale Road and is run and farmed by Mr David Harrison.

Many of the farms fields surround Hale Village, especially along the shore bank of the River Mersey from Baileys Lane to the Ladypool bridge/brook, along Whithins Way and up Church Road next to the Lighthouse Gates. One of the largest fields noted the farm works near the village, is situated at the bottom of Whithins Way, on the left hand side overlooking the River Mersey.

The location of the field provides excellent views of the Mersey,

from Frodsham Hill on the right to Rainhill Stoops on the left.

For bird watchers, this location provides some excellent results, as

it gives a good vantage point to monitor the activities of Hale Duck

Decoy and the Canadian Geese which are resident on the marshes

near by during the migrating season.

To the right and above you can see the field through various

stages of work, from sowing to harvesting.

The lane you can see is Whithins Way and runs from Church Road to the shore path.

The fields nearest to the farm that where once used for the milking hurd over 20

years ago, have now been turned over for the use of growing crops such as wheat

and Linseed Oil/Rape, these fields overlook Hale Park.

Below we have a sweeping panoramic view of one of Dave Harrisons fields along the banks of the Mersey, this field and the ones to the left of it were once used for the grazing of the milking hurd over 20 years ago, but nowadays it is used for wheat, barley or Linseed Oil/Rape. The woods in the background are noted for their names, the area behind the clump of trees on the left of the picture is called the Ice-House Woods, the area in the center and to the right is where the estate of Hale Hall is/was. Also the fields have names, the field immediately infront is called the Warren, the field behind the clump of trees to the left is called the Rabbit Hey
