Sandbach Ettiley Heath & Wheelock

Sandbach Ettiley Heath & Wheelock is situated to the north of the historic market town of Sandbach. The area is primarily residential, characterised by a mix of housing developments from different periods. It is bordered by the A534 to the south and includes the community around Wheelock. Local amenities serve the immediate population, with several schools and retail parks providing practical services for residents. The landscape is generally flat, typical of the Cheshire Plain, with some green spaces integrated into the urban fabric.

A notable feature is the presence of the Trent and Mersey Canal, which runs through the Wheelock area. This waterway historically supported local industry and now provides a linear route for walking and cycling. The surrounding land use is a combination of residential estates, light industrial units, and pockets of farmland. Transport links are defined by the railway line and the nearby M6 motorway, which influence the area's connectivity and character.
