Davenham is a large village and civil parish in Cheshire West and Chester, England, situated just west of Northwich on the low-lying Cheshire Plain beside the River Dane. Its setting combines fertile farmland and river corridors with a compact historic core of listed buildings and a parish church, reflecting a long rural settlement pattern shaped in part by the nearby salt-working landscape.
Today Davenham is largely residential, with local shops, a primary school, village hall and active sports clubs, and functions as a commuter base with road links into Chester and Manchester. The village retains a strong community feel and is often appreciated for riverside walks and the way its quieter village character sits alongside the industrial heritage of the wider Weaver Valley and Northwich area.
