The Constituency of Crewe & Nantwich sits within the Borough of the same name.


Crewe and Nantwich Borough has a resident population of 111,006 and covers around 160 square miles. It offers a mix of historic towns and unspoilt villages set in South Cheshire countryside. The excellent communication links render the Borough an ideal base for exploring surrounding areas.

South Cheshire is classic English countryside with gentle rolling meadowland, picturesque meres and an abundance of trees. It is a rich agricultural area noted for its carefully tended farms and excellent Cheshire cheese.

The two main towns offer a contrast with each other. Crewe is a thriving modern industrial and commercial centre, complemented by the historic market town of Nantwich.

While Crewe has a long history as a manufacturing and railway engineering centre, Nantwich is best known for its agricultural strengths, especially in the dairy industry.

However, in recent years a number of newer service and high technology companies have moved into the area which now gives the Borough a more diverse economic base
