\"Queen Elizabeth I visited Old Moreton Hall, sometimes called Little Moreton Hall, in 1589. A magnificent 16th century half-timbered manor house in Cheshire, just north of the Staffordshire Potteries, where the Royal Doulton Burslem factory is located, the building is now owned by the National Trust. The first sections of the house were built about 1450 by Sir Richard de Moreton, and the manor remained in the hands of the Moreton family for nearly five centuries.

At the center of the Old Moreton Hall plate is a scene depicting members of her court following Queen Elizabeth I as she enters Moreton Hall on the arm of a courtier, in all likelihood, Sir Francis Drake (note the presence of the court jester just over Drakes shoulder). At the verge of the plate (the verge is the area where the plate merges with the rim) is an acanthus-leaf border, with the inscription at the top of the border, Queen Elizabeth at Old Moreton 1589. The design on the rim of the plate cleverly replicates the half-timber architecture and windows of the manor house. Pieces in the pattern are transfer-printed, with details painted by hand\"
