  Cheshire Halal Travel Guide

Prior to boundary changes in 1974 and the creation of areas like Greater Manchester and Merseyside, Cheshire included everything south of the Mersey such as Sale, Hyde, and Stockport, and continued up to the Welsh border near Chester. The boundary changes led to some gains and some losses, Widnes and Warrington were added to Cheshire.

Local Languages

The Cheshire accent is not a strong regional accent and is often associated with Received Pronunciation (RP), but several regional accents and dialects like Scouse are common in Cheshire, due to the proximity to city's like Liverpool and Manchester.

How to travel to Cheshire

Travel by train to Cheshire

Crewe, Wilmslow and Warrington Bank Quay are on the West Coast Mainline, which gives them good connections to London, Birmingham, Glasgow, Edinburgh and a variety of other destinations. Chester has more infrequent services to and from London and the Midlands, and regular services to and from North Wales, Manchester and Liverpool served by Merseyrail. These last two are largely commuter lines, so do not expect major luxury, though they pass through enjoyable country scenery. Neston station in Cheshire also serves the Borderlands Line to mid-Wirral.

Fly to Cheshire

• Manchester Airport GPS: 53.353889,-2.275 (IATA Flight Code: MAN) is located just north of Cheshire and serves a large number of international and domestic destinations.
• Liverpool John Lennon (IATA Flight Code: LPL) is similarly close, and has mainly budget airline connections to European destinations. It will not be feasible to get to most places in Cheshire direct from here, rather you must go to the main train stations in that city and use that.
