Mouldsworth is a small rural civil parish in Cheshire West and Chester, England, set on the edge of Delamere Forest with the kind of rolling fields, hedgerows and sandstone outcrops typical of mid-Cheshire. Its quiet lanes, mixed farmland and nearby woodland make it popular with walkers, cyclists and nature-watchers, and the landscape gives the area a distinctly rural character despite good transport links.
The settlement grew up around farming and the arrival of the railway, and the local station on the Mid-Cheshire Line provides direct links to Chester and Manchester, so it functions partly as a commuter village while retaining agricultural and forestry activities. There’s a small but active community life centred on local amenities such as the village hall and pub, and modest Victorian and country-house heritage gives the parish a quietly interesting historic feel.
