Willington is a village and civil parish 9 miles (14 km) from Chester in Cheshire, England. At the 2011 census, the population was 277.[1][2][3][a]

The village contains a public house (The Boot), farm shop and hotel (Willington Hall).[4]

History

The placename means "village of a woman called Winflǣd", from the Old English personal name Winflǣd, and the suffix tun for farm or village. The name was recorded in the Domesday Book as Winfletone,[5] (under the ownership of Walter de Vernon and consisting of only two households),[6] and then as Wynlaton in the 12th century.[7]

Willington was previously an extra-parochial area in Eddisbury Hundred, which became a civil parish in 1866. From 1894 the civil parish was within Tarvin Rural District, transferring to the Chester district in 1974.[8]

Landmarks

The Boot Inn occupies a row of red-brick and sandstone cottages that were built in 1815. Behind the pub is Boothsdale, also known as 'Little Switzerland', accessible by a well-used footpath.

Willington Hall was built in 1829 and designed by the Nantwich architect George Latham.[4] It is a designated Grade II listed building.[9]
