Oglet Merseyside Map

About Oglet

Oglet, a quiet corner of Merseyside, breathes a gentle air of settled countryside. It lies 7.2 km north-east of Ellesmere Port (from Ellesmere Port: bearing 37°T, OS grid SJ 442 817), and is situated west-south-west of Hale village. The low-lying land, a rich alluvial soil, has long been given over to the patient tending of fields, where the sunlight, when it breaks through the cloud-laden sky, can hold a surprising, pale gold. Ancient hedgerows, thick with hawthorn and bramble, stand as silent witnesses to generations of farming, their tangled branches a haven for small birds. The very flatness of the landscape lends a particular clarity to the distant horizons, where the faintest smudge of industrial haze from the north-west often softens the edge of the sky. Oglet’s modest collection of houses clusters around a central green, a patch of well-worn turf that has felt the tread of countless footsteps over the years.
