Culcheth is a suburban village in the borough of Warrington, in the ceremonial county of Cheshire in north‑west England. Situated a short drive from Warrington town centre and within commuting distance of Manchester and Liverpool, it sits among pockets of woodland, farmland and small parks that give it a semi‑rural feel despite good road and rail links.
With medieval origins and historic ties to the de Culcheth family, the village retains traces of its old estate even as twentieth‑century changes - including the influence of nearby former airbases at Burtonwood - brought growth. Administratively part of the civil parish of Culcheth and Glazebury, it is largely residential today, with independent shops, pubs, a primary school and active sports and community clubs that make it popular with families and commuters seeking village life near larger urban centres.
