About

Macclesfield South ward lies directly south of the town centre, encompassing residential neighbourhoods and open land. The area includes the distinct communities of Hurdsfield and Tytherington, characterised by post-war housing estates and local shopping parades. The ward is bordered to the east by the River Bollin, which runs through parkland and playing fields. Its western edge is defined by the A523 Buxton Road, a major route leading out towards the Peak District.

A notable feature is the presence of the Macclesfield Canal, which skirts the ward's northern boundary near the town centre. The landscape rises to the south, with residential streets giving way to more rural land and the grounds of the Hurdsfield Industrial Estate. Public green spaces, including South Park and local recreation grounds, provide focal points within the largely suburban environment.
