About

Madeley & Betley ward covers a largely rural expanse in the north of Newcastle-under-Lyme borough. The area is centred around the two historic villages of Madeley and Betley, which are surrounded by working farmland and scattered settlements. The landscape is characterised by fields, woodland, and the presence of Betley Mere, a notable body of water. The ward maintains a distinct separation from the more urban areas to the south, with the A531 road acting as a key transport route through the parish.

The local economy has traditional ties to agriculture, though many residents now commute to employment centres elsewhere. Community life is focused around the village centres, with local amenities including schools, pubs, and the parish church. The area is part of the wider Betley Court estate, with its historic hall and gardens contributing to the local character. The ward includes the smaller hamlets of Balterley and Wrinehill, maintaining a quiet, village-based atmosphere across its territory.
