Moreton Hall School

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.

Mary died in 1945 at a relatively young age and was commemorated by a bronze sculpture by Karel Vogel[8] depicting three pupils playing musical instruments.

She had frequently visited Moreton Hall, choreographing dance productions, teaching lacrosse (she had captained Wales) and cricket and leading rambles in the surrounding countryside.

[9] Roger Goolden (1933–2014), appointed by Bronwen Lloyd-Williams in 1963, held the position of Clerk of Works until 1993.

He oversaw a significant extension of the school buildings, including a boarding block and swimming pool.

[12] The Principal is Micheal Brewer [13] and the Head of Moreton Hall Prep, John Bond.

[20] An early Enterprise was the re-opening of nearby Gobowen railway station, headed by geography teacher David Lloyd and pupils at the school.

David Lloyd is remembered by having a locomotive of the Wrexham & Shropshire Railway company named after him.
