Hankelow Online Noticeboard


Information about the South Cheshire village of Hankelow

On this page:-

General Information.

As you may have seen on AOL, the Whitchurch road from Audlenm has closed again at the bridge over the Weaver, apparently until 30th April. Then Audlem Road will be closed by Brine Leas from May 6th until May 10th. It is to be hoped that the repairs to the bridge on the Whitchurch Road will be completed on time since it will be part of the diversion route when Audlem Road closes.

Closer to home, temporary traffic lights are to be expected on the A529 by the village green on 21st April.

Work has started on a new Cheshire East Local Plan.

There will be local elections on May 2nd, and photographic identification will be required. If you don't have photo ID you can apply for free photo ID but this must be done before 24th April.

Nantwich Brine Pool will open for a new season on 20th April.

A new Whitchurch website, designed by Joe Sheldon of Audlem Printers, has been launched to boost tourism and trade in Whitchurch. You can visit the site here.

Starting from the coming Monday (8th April) the White Lion will be open on Mondays and Tuesdays from 5:00 p.m. onwards for drinks and snacks, with real ale from £3 a pint.

Cheshire East Council is launching an online family hub service to support children and families.
