Rostherne is a village and former civil parish, now in the parish of Millington and Rostherne,[1] in the unitary authority area of Cheshire East and the ceremonial county of Cheshire, England (grid reference SJ743835).

To the north of the village is Rostherne Mere and to the south is Tatton Park.

At the time of the Domesday Book the parish belonged to Gilbert de Venables, Baron of Kinderton, who displaced Ulviet the Saxon as owner of the lands, although there was then only one rateable field in the parish, one team and two acres of wood, the whole only being worth four shillings a year.

[2] On 1 April 2023 the parish was abolished to form "Millington and Rostherne".

[3] St Mary's Church, Rostherne, is a Grade I listed building,[4] whose rectory was for many centuries in the possession of the Leighs of West Hall, High Legh.
