About

The Northwich Winnington & Castle ward is a distinct area north of the River Weaver and the town centre.

The landscape is characterised by a mix of housing estates, former chemical works, and large-scale business parks. The Trent & Mersey Canal forms part of its eastern boundary, adding a linear waterway feature to the area.
