Little Hulton history
The ancient district of Hulton containing three townships was recorded as Helghtun and Hulton in 1235, Hilton in 1278 and 1292. Little Hulton was a village in the ancient Deane parish with a chapel, sometimes called Peel Chapel. The chief manor was held by the Hultons at Hulton Park in Over Hulton.
Coal mining and Cutacre
Little Hulton was extensively mined from the mid-19th century. Its collieries included Madam’s Wood Pits, Brackley, Wharton Hall, Ashton’s Field and Peel Hall. UK Coal was granted planning permission to surface mine 900,000 tonnes of coal and rework the Cutacre spoil tip.
20th century
Before 1949 Little Hulton was a village of around 8,000 people. The land was developed into council housing overspill estates by Worsley Urban District Council to accommodate residents moved there from post-war slum clearance areas. By the end of 1956 over 1,000 families had moved to the estate and by 1962 3,060 houses had been built.
