Hale and Halewood could be virtually the same place. The following is an extract from Joseph Aston's 1808 Lancashire Gazetteer
HALE, (joint township with Halwood) 10 miles E.S.E. of Liverpool, at the east end of the estuary formed by the Mersey and the Weaver, opposite to Frodsham Marsh. It is in the parish of Childwall, and the patronage of its chapel of ease is in J. Blackburn, Esq.
Hale Bank, 1 mile N. of Hale
Hale Hall, the seat of J. Blackburn, Esq. Hale
Hale Nook, 2 miles S.E. of Stalmin
HALEWOOD, adjoining on the N. to Hale, to which it is an united township
Halewood Green, 1 mile E. of Gatacre
