Der Alte Schlachthof, Flat Lane, Sandbach
The German name of this modern property means 'The old slaughterhouse'. My sister recalls the abattoir still operating in the early 1980s, but Stewart Green's online history site records its demolition in June 1987.

Sandbach Crosses
Two 9th century stone crosses, decorated on all faces with carved figures, animals and vine scrolls.
The taller cross shows biblical scenes and has a mutiliated head. The shorter cross has a truncated shaft with the mutilated head of another cross.
They were taken from their original site and broken up. The fragments were eventually restored to their present site in 1816.
The style and themes of the sculpture indicate contact with the wider Anglo-Saxon world, suggesting Sandbach was a significant centre of pre-Viking sculpture in the 9th century.
