Wheelock is a small village in Cheshire East, England, set in the gentle Cheshire countryside alongside the River Wheelock. It sits a short distance from the larger market town of Sandbach and the railway and industrial hub of Crewe, so the area combines a rural character with ready access to bigger centres.
Historically the settlement grew from agricultural roots with mills and small-scale industry exploiting the river, and today much of its economy mixes farming, local businesses and commuter residents. The village retains a close-knit feel with community activities and village amenities typical of rural Cheshire, while nearby transport links make it convenient for those working in surrounding towns and cities.
