About

Bollington ward encompasses the town of Bollington and its surrounding rural edges within Cheshire East. The area is defined by the River Dean and the Macclesfield Canal, which run through the valley floor. The landscape rises steeply to the west towards Kerridge Hill and the distinctive White Nancy monument, a local landmark. The town's historic character is shaped by its former cotton mills, many of which have been repurposed for modern residential and commercial use.

The community is served by local shops and amenities concentrated along the main thoroughfares. Recreational paths follow the canal towpath and climb into the surrounding hills, which form part of the wider Pennine foothills. The area maintains a mix of residential housing, from Victorian terraces to newer developments, set against a backdrop of farmland and open moorland on the higher ground. This creates a distinct transition from the settled valley to the open countryside.
