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 village has a windmill, now converted to a private dwelling.[3]
The Derby Arms public house, situated on the corner of Kirkham Road and Church Road, has been designated a Grade II listed building since 9 June 1967. It was originally a farmhouse, dating from the early 18th century, with and early 19th-century additions.[4] It is now been closed for some years and was sold to local developer, Pete Marquis Developments, in 2020. The development plans would involve the listed element of the building being retained, but converted into a new use of a community shop with two flats above. More recent extensions would be removed and six new houses built on the site.[5][6]

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.[8]
