Betley & Wrinehill
Pretty Wrinehill & Betley villages lie on the borders of South Cheshire and North Staffordshire. Betley is ideally situated and convenient for Newcastle-under-Lyme (6 miles), Nantwich and Crewe (6 miles) and the M6 Motorway (Jct.16) approx. 6 miles. Wychwood Golf Course is 2 miles north of the village. Betley is a bustling village with thriving community spirit and active social events calendar. The village provides a range of local amenities including a primary school, nursery, church, doctors surgery, village shop, Post Office, and The Swan Public House, as well as a frequent bus service to Nantwich, Crewe, Newcastle & Stoke-on-Trent. Betley - meaning the 'clearing in the woods' of Bette (a Saxon woman's name) - is an ancient settlement. It is mentioned in the Domesday Book. It is one of several villages - including Buddileigh, Audley, and Madeley - which seem to be named after women. It had a major market, the charter for which was granted in the thirteenth century. At Betley Hall, a now-demolished country house, Charles Darwin conducted some of his zoological observations and Florence Nightingale visited. At another country house in the village, Betley Court (which is still standing), lived the Romantic poet Eliza Tollet.
The church, dedicated to St Margaret of Antioch, is a beautiful medieval building (reasonably well-restored by George Gilbert Scott), with oak beams and a cricket ground to the rear.
The village of Wrinehill – which seamlessly continues from the Betley boundary & where this property is located boasts the Brunning & Price owned The Hand & Trumpet Gastro Pub just a short distance from the property itself.
