Great Warford
Great Warford () is a village and civil parish in the unitary authority of Cheshire East and the ceremonial county of Cheshire, England.
A predominantly farming settlement, Great Warford has existed for approximately a thousand years. Today, in addition to agriculture, it's noted for its roles in private healthcare and property development. The population stands at 1710 inhabitants. The village lacks a distinct municipal centre in terms of population density and significance. Warford Park development houses around 300 residents and boasts amenities like an on-site health/leisure club, tennis courts, the Warford Park Bowling Club, and expansive gardens, lakes, and parkland.
Although Great Warford lacks direct national transport links, being without a railway or bus station, it's strategically positioned in "The Golden Triangle" formed by Alderley Edge, Knutsford, and Wilmslow. As such, it benefits from nearby schools, shops, restaurants, and entertainment venues. The proximity to the North West's expansive motorway network allows accessibility without compromising the village's rural charm. Other local attractions include Manchester Airport, a golf club, and numerous footpaths that appeal to tourists.
