Treales

The village was called "Treueles" in the Domesday Book and "Turuel" in 1242.[2] At the time of the Norman invasion of England, it was held by Earl Tostig. It later came into the possession of the Earl of Derby.[2]

In Treales the Anglican parish church, Christ Church, is situated on Church Road. It was built in 1855 by Lord Stanley, when the Patron was the vicar of Kirkham.[2] The church is now part of a benefice with Christ Church, Wesham. The Derby Arms public house is situated on the corner of Kirkham Road and Church Road. The village has a windmill, now converted to a private dwelling.[3]

In February 2019, the government refused planning permission for fracking at Roseacre Wood. The application, by energy firm Cuadrilla, had been refused by the local council and was the subject of a public inquiry. The secretary of state said highway safety issues had not been "satisfactorily addressed" and refused planning permission.[5]
