About

Hale ward encompasses the suburban area of Hale itself, along with the neighbouring district of Bowdon. The residential streets are characterised by a mix of large, detached properties and more traditional semi-detached homes, set along tree-lined roads. The local centre on Ashley Road provides a concentration of independent shops, cafes, and restaurants, serving the immediate community.

A notable feature is the Hale Lighthouse, a historic, white-painted brick tower standing at the junction of Chapel Lane and Railway Road, marking the area's heritage. Green space is provided by several smaller parks and recreation grounds, while the Bridgewater Canal forms a quiet western boundary, offering towpath walks away from the main residential zones.
