Map of the UK

Chelford is a semi-rural ward in Cheshire East, England, lying on the Cheshire Plain between Knutsford and Macclesfield. Traditionally an agricultural settlement, it grew around local farming and a once-important livestock market, and retains a scattering of historic cottages and a parish church that reflect its long village roots.

Today Chelford mixes country pursuits with commuter living, benefiting from good road and rail links into Manchester and Crewe. The area is popular with equestrian and outdoor enthusiasts, has an active community life centred on village facilities, and is valued for its rural character close to larger market towns.
