More about Nantwich Cheshire
Nantwich is a market town in south Cheshire, England,
in the Borough and parliamentary constituency of Crewe
and Nantwich. In 2001 Nantwich had a population of
12,515.
The origins of the settlement date to Roman times when
salt from Nantwich was used by the Roman garrisons at
Chester and Stoke-on-Trent as both a preservative and a
condiment. Salt has been used in the production of
Cheshire cheese and in the tanning industry, both
industries being products of the dairy industry based on
the Cheshire plain around the town.
In the Domesday Book, Nantwich is recorded as having
eight salt houses. It had a castle and was the capital
of a barony of the earls of Chester, and of a hundred
(one of the seven sub-divisions of medieval Cheshire).
The salt industry peaked in the late sixteenth century
when there were 216 salt houses, but the industry ended
in 1856 with the closure of the last salt house.
Similarly the last tannery closed in 1974, but the
clothing industry remains important to the area.
Nantwich has suffered several disasters in its history.
It was first recorded as an urban area at the time of
the Norman conquest -- the Normans burned the town to
the ground, leaving only one building standing. Two
hundred years later the town was attacked over a lengthy
period by marauders from Wales, while in 1583 the Great
Fire of Nantwich raged for 20 days, destroying most of
the town, which was rebuilt, at a cost of ?30,000 in
16th-century money, ?2,000 of which was personally
donated by Queen Elizabeth I together with timber from
the royal forest. Indeed, one of the main streets of
Nantwich was re-named to reflect the fact that the
timber to rebuild the town was transported along it
(Beam Street). Many plaques in Nantwich now commemorate
this.
During the English Civil War, Nantwich was the only town
in Cheshire to declare for Parliament, and consequently
it was besieged several times by Royalist forces. The
final siege was lifted following the victory of the
Parliamentary forces in the Battle of Nantwich on
January 26, 1644, which is re-enacted as Holly Holy Day
on its anniversary every year, an event usually
involving the Sealed Knot, a registered charity devoted
to re-enacting English civil war battles for education
purposes.
Geographically, Nantwich is on the 'Cheshire Plain', on
the banks of the River Weaver and close to the
Llangollen and Shropshire Union Canals, just south of
the latter's junction with the Trent and Mersey Canal.
It is approximately four miles south-west of Crewe (it
has a railway station on the line from Crewe to
Whitchurch, Shrewsbury and other towns along the Welsh
border), and 20 miles south-east of Chester. It is a
major road junction, being the meeting point of the A51,
A500, A529, A530 and A534 roads - the stretch of the
A534 from Nantwich to the Welsh border is regarded as
one of the ten worst stretches of road in England for
road safety.
