Introduction
West Leigh Hall had a hall and grounds on a moated site. There was a small park or lawn to the south of the house, with productive gardens, an orchard and a moat to the north. In 1931 the hall and grounds were given to the Leigh Corporation. The hall was demolished and the grounds were laid out for playing fields. The site remains as the Marsh Playing Fields.
