Map of the UK

Burton is a small village in Cheshire West and Chester, set in lowland Cheshire countryside a short drive from Chester and on the edge of the coastal salt marshes that fringe the Dee estuary and the Wirral. The landscape is typically a mix of farmland, hedgerows and tidal flats, giving good views across to North Wales and making it a quiet spot for walkers and birdwatchers.

Historically agricultural with medieval roots, the village retains traditional cottages, a parish church and a village pub atmosphere, while many residents commute to nearby towns and cities such as Liverpool and Chester. Local life blends farming and small-scale tourism linked to nature reserves and the coast, and community events and history societies keep a strong sense of local identity.
