Cuerdale is a civil parish in the South Ribble district of Lancashire, England.

One of the earliest known references to the area was Warine or Swain de Keuerdale, born c. 1112 (who may be the same person as Swain De Salmesbury, Lord of Hindley) who occupied a site on or near location of present Cuerdale Hall.

When Warine died, Gilbert received half of the Manor; the rest was divided between the other sons.

The Curedale family who take their name from the area today consist of about 30 individuals living in Dublin, Ireland, Hertfordshire England, Western Australia and the US.

Examination of satellite images showing field alignments and local roads suggest that Cuerdale Hall was on the Western side of a road coming from the south that possibly crossed the Ribble immediately north of the hall.
