Welcome to the Barnton Village Website, which is maintained and hosted by Barnton Parish Council. Barnton is a pleasant, large village located within the unitary authority of Cheshire West and Chester. The village lies to the north of both the Trent-Mersey canal (part of the famous Cheshire Ring) and the River Weaver, and around 2 miles to the north-west of the town of Northwich. The village has a long, rural history, but grew rapidly in the 1800s thanks to the success of the Brunner Mond company (who occupied a large site in neighbouring Winnington) and who built hundreds of houses for their workers here. The village now boasts an excellent range of local amenities and is within easy reach of the A49, M56 and M6 making it popular with commuters to Liverpool, Manchester and Chester. It is surrounded by wonderful Cheshire countryside and enjoys an enviable location on some of Cheshire’s most attractive inland waterways. |

Mr Jonathan Wills, 61 Mond Street, Barnton
I was born, brought up and educated in Poulton-le-Fylde just outside Blackpool. After four years at University in Edinburgh, I moved to France to work a summer job and ended up living (on and off) in France for the next 5 years. I worked initially for an English tour operator and latterly for a French company managing a campsite in St. Malo on the Northern Brittany coast. Moved back to the UK in 2005 and to Barnton in 2006 to be close to the Hartford office of Eurocamp/Keycamp where I have worked for the last 5 years. I’ve been married to Sarah for 5 years (although we’ve been together for 16) and have 3 children; George (3), Sebastian (20 months) and Kitty (8 weeks).
