Over Alderley is a small, rural civil parish in Cheshire East, England, set on the rolling farmland of the Cheshire Plain a few miles from the honeyed sandstone escarpment of Alderley Edge and within easy reach of Macclesfield and Manchester. The area is defined by narrow lanes, hedgerows, scattered farms and pockets of ancient woodland, giving it a quietly picturesque, strongly rural character.
Traditionally agricultural, the parish contains historic country houses and converted farm buildings and supports equestrian activity, small-scale rural businesses and a community life centred on the local church and village events. Its listed buildings, footpaths and country lanes make it popular with walkers and those seeking country living, while many residents commute to nearby towns for work, so it blends deep rural roots with modern connections.
