Prestbury lies in the County of Cheshire in the North West of England and can trace its history back to Celtic times, the Romans also visited here but it was the Saxons that really first set about establishing this as a settlement and leaving behind, as a testament to their visit, The Saxon cemetery, The Saxon Cross and the name Prestbury, which it is believed translates from the Anglo Saxon for Priest’s Town. Prestbury has always enjoyed its rural setting although at one time it did have a brickworks, though there is nothing left of that today except a few gardens located in gardens. As further confirmation of its rural setting the village boasted a couple of smithies and a corn mill of which little evidence remains. Today it consistently wins the “Best Kept Village” award and its is no wonder, with its 10th century Norman chapel, 13th century church and its local shops which are nearly all listed buildings. Close by are there are a number of halls to visit as well as Jodrell Bank, Styal Mill and numerous country homes. Prestbury continues to attract new and regular visitors every year with its convenient location and nearby attractions here in the picturesque Cheshire countryside at the foot of the Pennines.
