Chelford is a small village situated in the heart of the Cheshire countryside. In recent years, the agricultural market and haulage business have moved on and new housing developments have taken their place. In today’s Chelford, you will see more young people and young families and the future of the village and its facilities is brighter and more secure.
The history of the area and the effect of the railway on the village’s development is still to be seen in its church, school, manor house, coal office and farms. Chelford has long been a hub for cycle racing and this station is also a great starting point for many lovely rural walks.
The much-loved station may be utilitarian, but volunteers work hard to make it welcoming. To everyone who says ‘Hello’ and utters words of encouragement, that’s what we love to hear!
