Cheshire West and Chester is a unitary borough in Cheshire, formed in 2009 from the City of Chester, Ellesmere Port and Neston, and Vale Royal. Its main urban areas are Chester, Ellesmere Port, and Northwich with Winsford, and the council meets in Winsford.
Chester, the historic county town, stands on the River Dee close to the Welsh border. It began as the Roman fort of Deva Victrix in the 70s AD, and its city walls are almost complete. The Rows put shops on two levels along its main streets, the racecourse lies on the Roodee beside the river, and Chester Zoo is on the city's east side.
Ellesmere Port, on the Manchester Ship Canal north of Chester, began where the Ellesmere Canal met the River Mersey and is home to the National Waterways Museum. Northwich, where the Weaver meets the Dane, and Winsford, to the south on the Weaver, grew on salt. Near Northwich, the Anderton Boat Lift joins the Weaver Navigation to the Trent and Mersey Canal.
Delamere Forest, what remains of the Norman earls' hunting forests, has woodland, lakes and mosses on the Mid Cheshire Ridge. Old railways have become paths, among them the Whitegate Way from Winsford and the Wirral Way.
Chester station is the hub of the borough's railways, with trains to Crewe and along the North Wales coast, Merseyrail trains to Liverpool, and a line through Northwich to Manchester. Winsford is on the West Coast Main Line. The M53 heads for the Wirral, the M56 for Manchester and the A55 for North Wales.
