Tattenhall is a village and former civil parish, now in the parish of Tattenhall and District, 8 miles (13 km) south-east of Chester, in the unitary authority area of Cheshire West and Chester and the ceremonial county of Cheshire, England.

[3] The name is believed to be derived from the Old English personal name Tata and halh, meaning "a meadow" or "nook of land".

The railways led to the establishment of industries including the manufacture of glue, gelatine, fertiliser and bricks.

[10][11] St Alban's Church is designated by English Heritage as a Grade II* listed building.

[9] Within Tattenhall are several houses designed in 1927 by the architect Clough Williams-Ellis, famous for creating the Italianate village of Portmeirion in north west Wales.

The Tattenhall electoral ward includes the villages of Beeston, Burwardsley and Handley, stretching east to Tilstone Fearnall and south to Broxton.

There are fifteen parish councillors for Tattenhall and District, with the most recent election taking place on 4 May 2023, although it was uncontested.
