This shows how the same locations that were depicted in the 1778 survey have continued in use as salt works, although ownership has changed significantly. The background map is the 1st edition Ordnance Survey map. It also shows some of the salt related contemporary industries and the Railway which came to the Town in 1868.
The Trust is established for the preservation and promotion of the heritage of Middlewich (including buildings, artefacts and archives) as a resource for the benefit of the residents of Cheshire East, of Cheshire West and Chester, and of the wider public. Middlewich Heritage Trust is a not for profit organisation and welcomes volunteers from all walks of life in a number of different areas.
There are many ways to get involved with Middlewich Heritage and volunteers are a crucial part of what we do. For more information on how to become a volunteer please contact us.
