Background
History
Adlington was a chapelry and township in Prestbury ancient parish. It became a separate civil parish in 1866 and had slight changes to its civil parish boundaries in 1936. In 1974, local government reorganisation led to it becoming part of the Borough of Macclesfield, which in turn was succeeded by Cheshire East Council in 2009. Adlington Hall, dating from at least the end of the 13th century, is located at the western end of the village. Adlington made the news in January 2008, when a delivery vehicle shed 18 tonnes of mango chutney onto the road through the village. A spokesman for F Swain and Sons, the company which owns the lorry, said: "It was just one of those things."
