Wettenhall is a village (at SJ624614) and civil parish in the unitary authority of Cheshire East and the ceremonial county of Cheshire, England. The village lies 3½ miles to the south west of Winsford and 6 miles to the north west of Crewe. The parish also includes the settlements of Chapel Green and Woodside.[1] Nearby villages include Alpraham, Calveley, Cholmondeston, Church Minshull, Little Budworth and Tarporley. St David's is the village Church, it holds services every Sunday, also various other functions such as coffee and cake and fund raising events. The Little Man is the only remaining public house as the Boot and Slipper was demolished in 2016, much to the despair of Roger Nicholas and his friends. They all now drink in the Little Man and Thursday is the busiest night. [1][2][3] The village's former manor house was demolished c. 1930.

According to the 2001 census, the parish had a population of 135,[4] increasing to 192 at the 2011 Census.[5]

Geography

The parish includes Wettenhall Wood, part of the Wettenhall And Darnhall Woods Site of Special Scientific Interest, together with woodland in the adjacent Darnhall parish.[6][7]
