‘The Old Barn’, Hankins Heys Lane Buerton, Cheshire, CW3 0DH

DIRECTIONS

From Nantwich, take the A529 over the level crossing into Wellington

Road, which continues into Audlem Road. Proceed for approx. 6.5

miles into the centre of Audlem. With the Church on your left hand

side, turn left towards Buerton & Woore, continue along the road until

you reach the hamlet of Buerton. Continue past Windmill Lane on the

left & then take the next right hand turn into Hankins Heys Lane. 'The

Old Barn' will be observed, approx. 0.3 mile, on the right hand side.

LOCATION

Buerton is a rural hamlet approx. 2 miles from nearby Audlem which is

an attractive, extremely well serviced award-winning country village,

the centre of which is designated as a Conservation Area, well known

for its Church dating back to 1279. Audlem has a medical practice,

chemist, primary school, play group, three public houses and a range of

shops. It is also the location of 15 locks on the Shropshire Union Canal.

Approx distances: Nantwich 6 Miles, Crewe 10 miles, Manchester 40

Minutes, Walled City of Chester 26 miles, Newcastle Under Lyme 14

miles, Telford 25 miles, Shrewsbury 25 miles, M6 motorway - Junction

16- 10 miles. In a county considered as prosperous as Cheshire, a

village as well serviced as Audlem may become complacent about the

services & facilities it provides but, it has demonstrated that it certainly

doesn't take its facilities for granted. Annual events in the Village

include a Transport Festival, Music & Arts Festival and Open Gardens

Weekend.

key commercial centres of Britain and are linked to Nantwich by the
