Rudheath is a village and civil parish in the unitary authority of Cheshire West and Chester and the ceremonial county of Cheshire, in the north west of England, approximately 2 miles east of Northwich. The civil parish also includes the area of Broken Cross.[1] The population of the civil parish as taken at the 2011 census was 3,807.[2] Rudheath has a parish council, the lowest level of local government.[1]
Rudheath is the location of Rudheath Primary Academy,[3] and the Rudheath Senior Academy. Both schools provide education to school-age children from the village and the surrounding area.
Contemporary major local employers include Frank Roberts & Sons, a bakery that has been associated with the area since 1887. Two of Frank Roberts & Sons's three main business divisions, Roberts Bakery and The Little Treats Co, are based on the A556 in Rudheath and Aldred's The Bakers, is located in Ilkeston, Derbyshire.[4] Morrisons supermarket has a large distribution centre on the A530, while Orange, Barclays Bank and The Hut Group all have business centres at Gadbrook Park, off the A556.
Broken Cross was named for a wayside cross which formerly stood at the junction of King Street and Penny's Lane, and was probably broken by the 17th century. A farm and the Old Broken Cross public house were named for the former cross.[5]
