About

Brereton Rural ward encompasses a primarily agricultural landscape on the eastern fringe of Cheshire East. The area is characterised by scattered farms, fields, and small settlements like Brereton Green and Hulme Walfield. The terrain is generally flat to gently rolling, typical of the Cheshire Plain, with land use dominated by dairy and arable farming. The ward maintains a quiet, residential character away from major urban centres.

A notable feature is the presence of Brereton Heath Local Nature Reserve, a former sand quarry now containing a large lake popular for fishing and walking. The ward is bordered to the east by the Trent and Mersey Canal, which historically served the area's industries. Transport links are provided by the A50 road, which runs through the southern part of the ward connecting to Holmes Chapel and Congleton.
