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.

Mrs Sheena Beech, 15 Hazelwood Road, Barnton
My name is Sheena Beech , I am 54 and I have lived in Barnton for the majority of my life. My parents are both from Barnton, my mother was Beryl Arnold of Broadway and my Father Richard Linnett who’s parents ran The Travellers Rest on Runcorn Road. I am married to Andrew and have two adult son’s Nicholas and Edward. I work as a Teaching Assistant at St Nicholas High School. Over the years I have seen many changes and feel that I would like to contribute to the future of the village. Recently I have been involved with the Parish Plan Group. I have a wholistic approach and want to see the village flourish inclusively for all its residents.
