Site of the former Sandbach waterworks (2)
Old maps show this area as a waterworks, opened in 1891. By 2014 it was derelict and planning permission (Ref 12/1650C) was granted for its demolition, removal of water treatment storage and settlement tanks, and construction of 12 two-storey detached dwellings. However, three years later development was yet to commence - developers seem at present to be focussing on areas closer to the motorway junction and railway station. The building at the right of the photo was the water board offices Image

Former Sandbach Waterworks building
Old maps show this area as a waterworks.

This was presumably the administrative building. By 2014 it was derelict and planning permission (Ref 12/1650C) was granted for its demolition, removal of water treatment storage and settlement tanks, and construction of 12 two-storey detached dwellings. See also Image

Footpath off Adlington Drive
The path, which links Adlington Drive to Doddington Drive, was probably a replacement for a right of way which existed a little to the north of here before the housing estate was built.
