Map of the UK

Audlem is a compact rural ward in Cheshire East, best known for its stretch of the Shropshire Union Canal and the notable flight of locks that bring a steady stream of narrowboats and walkers through the area. The centre has a strong conservation feel, with many listed buildings and a pleasant mix of stone cottages, independent shops and traditional pubs clustered around a historic core.

Historically rooted with a parish church and agricultural hinterland, Audlem combines a village atmosphere with a modest tourism economy; local businesses, holiday lets and hospitality trade sit alongside farming. The community is active and well supported by clubs and village halls, and many residents commute to nearby towns such as Nantwich and Crewe while enjoying the tranquillity of the Cheshire countryside.
