About Prestbury, Cheshire

It lies 2.2 miles north-north-west of Macclesfield (from Macclesfield: bearing 331°T, OS grid SJ 899 768), and is situated west-south-west of Butley Town village. The River Bollin winds through the heart of the landscape, casting long, silver reflections against the manicured gardens that soften the approach to the historic core. Time seems to gather around the ancient Cross Shaft In The Churchyard Of St Peter's Church, where the weathered stone bears witness to centuries of local devotion.

Prestbury has long attracted those drawn to its discreet elegance, resulting in a social geography marked by grand estates and carefully preserved heritage. A short distance away, the tranquil waters of Hunter's Pool catch the shifting light of the afternoon, mirroring the heavy foliage of the surrounding trees.
