Roughhill maintains a quiet dignity amidst the flat, fertile stretches of the Cheshire plain. It lies 2.8 miles south-south-west of Chester (from Chester: bearing 206°T, OS grid SJ 384 623), and is situated east-north-east of Dodleston village. Low-lying fields define the horizon here, where the light catches the moisture in the air to lend a silvery cast to the winter hedgerows. A short distance to the south, the waters of Colliters Brook New trace a path through the earth, marking the boundary between the cultivated land and the wilder fringes of the county. Roughhill keeps its secrets beneath a canopy of heavy clouds that often seem to brush against the tops of the distant trees. To the west-north-west, the timbered expanse of Bretton Wood stands as a dark, sentinel presence against the shifting sky. The passage of time in Roughhill is measured less by the clock than by the slow, rhythmic turning of the agricultural seasons across the surrounding acres.
