Lache is a residential ward on the southern edge of Chester, within the unitary authority of Cheshire West and Chester. Largely developed as mid-20th-century council housing, it now comprises a mix of social and private homes with local shops, schools and green spaces, and has good bus links into the city and nearby employment areas.
The area has a strong community focus, with local centres, clubs and regeneration initiatives helping to knit together a diverse, family-oriented population. The place-name reflects an older landscape connection with water - derived from Old English - and residents benefit from being close to the Cheshire countryside while still within easy reach of Chester’s amenities.
