Christleton

[2] Christleton was named "one of the best places to live" in Cheshire and the North West by The Sunday Times in 2022 and again in 2024.

[5] Its history can be traced with certainty to the Domesday Book, which contains an entry for Christetone,[6][7] though there is evidence of earlier occupation.

By 1086, the land was under the ownership of Robert FitzHugh (son of Hugh Lupus) and comprised 23 households: twelve villagers, five smallholders, two female slaves (maidservants), two "reeves" (officials) and two "radmen" (riders or roadmen).

[11] The Anglican church is dedicated to St James and the current building was designed by William Butterfield and was consecrated in 1877.

The village's amenities include a sports centre and swimming pool, a newsagent shop, parish hall and local pubs the Ring O Bells, the Cheshire Cat and The Plough.
