[3] At the time of the Roman conquest of Britain in the 1st century AD, the area around Singleton was inhabited by a Celtic tribe called the Setantii.

[6] Pevsner's The Buildings of England describes the hall as "large and unlovely, in brick and stone trim with an entrance tower and a taller stair-tower.

[7] The Miller family also commissioned Singleton's parish church, St Anne's, designed by Lancaster architect Edward Graham Paley and completed in 1861.

[9] The village has one public house, the Miller Arms, which is located in a building dating from the 17th century.

The village is represented in the House of Commons of the Parliament of the United Kingdom as part of Fylde.
