Lovely town centre with a lot going on

Built c i 640, as two cottages, this was once an ale house, but by the mid-i 300s. it was the village shop and post office, with the District Bank in residence every Thursday. Run by Mr & Mrs Samuel Brereton it was the major supplier of goods in the village. but after the death of both her parents, Miss Amelia Brereton took over. She fell out with the Luxmore-Brookes over politics and bunit, what is. now, The Old Post Office and moved the business there in 1915.

The first chapel on the site was a small wooden structure and existed by 1 133, when it was gifted to Combermere Abbey. In 1541, following the dissolution of monasteries, John Minshull purchased the lease for the rectory, from Daniel of Daresbury and built a Tudor 'magpie' church on the site using materials and columns from the demolition of Combermeere Abbey. He became the first Minister of the Church in the same year and was buried in the church, three years later. A storm badly damaged the church in 1667 and the tower partly collapsed at the end of the century. Services were held outside as it was simply too dangerous in the nave. The present building was built from 1702 (as seen by the darker bricks, either side of the clock face), to 1720, by appealing to the charity of other churches, known as 'Queen Anne's Bounty'. The style of the church is Bolingbroke' and has changed little since 1720, although restorations and modernisations in 1861 and 1899 have seen the addition of a central convex ceiling, altar panels and a minstrel gallery. The tower has a ring of six bells, dated from 1717 to 1982 and at the foot of the tower is the notable Wade crypt., belonging to the family from Wades Green Hall. There is a slate memorial to Thomas and Alice Minshull on the outside of the East wall. The inscription the great wrongs' refers to 'The Great Cheshire Will Case' which was a dispute between two branches of the Fitton family over the ownership of Gawsworth Hall, near Macclesfield. In 1 7 12, the husbands of the two heirs in dispute were, Lord Mohun and James, Duke of Hamilton. They fought a duel in Hyde Park, London and succeeded in killing e ach other. Alterations in 20 1 8-19 turned up remnants of the 154l church and some earlier items from the 1702-20 building and theses are displayed inside the church, along with old photos, artefacts and a cracked bell of 1717.

This Farm has had various uses, an ale house, vicarage, and private house. Built c 1620, the outstanding feature is the projecting porch on two [truscan columns. The diamond pattern of beams above the porch show it was a Cholmondeley owned farm, as it copies the design of their coat of arms.

A warm and welcoming inn in Church Minshull. Serving good food and drink. Accommodation available.

nice, safe, dedicated cycle path between Nantwich and Crewe.

Nantwich (/ˈnæntwɪtʃ/ NAN-twitch) is a market town. It has among the highest concentrations of listed buildings in England, with notably good examples of Tudor and Georgian architecture. It had a population of 14,045 in 2021 Amazing building its a beautiful place to visit.

Sorry couldn't resist the ice cream before I took the photo.! By the way, at least 15 flavours available, but Im absolutely a vanilla person only :)

A working farm selling much of its produce in the farm shop. Stop for lunch, just an ice cream or to buy one of many unusual gifts. Check out the photos! Great children's play areas, indoor and out ( small cost )

Easy entrance onto the Trent and Mersey canal tow-path

Nestled within captivating surroundings, Winterley Pool emerges as a favoured fishing lake, offering a tranquil haven for both anglers and nature enthusiasts alike. An idea spot to pause and immerse oneself in the breathtaking scenery. Abundant in wildlife, the pool is graced by a resident flock of mute swans.

The Nantwich Aqueduct, a Grade II listed bridge, stands as a testament to the vision of Thomas Telford, its construction being finalized in 1828. This aqueduct gracefully bears the weight of the Shropshire Union Canal, serving as the remarkable 'Gateway to Nantwich.' In 2015, restoration efforts were undertaken. This ambitious endeavour, secured victory in the restoration and historic environment category of the prestigious Canal & River Trust's Living Waterways Awards in 2016.

Nantwich is a hidden gem with lots of old Tudor and Georgian buildings and cafes to stop at, plus lots of roads around the town have been freshly tarmacked.
