Map of the UK

Pott Shrigley is a small rural village and civil parish in Cheshire East, sitting on the western edge of the Peak District a few miles from Macclesfield. It occupies a tucked-away spot of rolling farmland, lanes and woodlands and is popular with walkers and people looking for a quiet base close to countryside yet within reach of larger towns.

The settlement has a strong sense of local history and community: a medieval parish church and the nearby country house often attract visitors, while village halls and pubs host regular events. The local economy is largely agricultural with a number of residents commuting to nearby centres, and tourism linked to the historic buildings and countryside walks provides a modest additional income stream.
