Tarporley, The High Street
Tarporley is a large (population 2,614 at the 2011 Census) picturesque village on the west of the Cheshire Plain. It is believed that the High Street was part of a Roman Road called the Via Devana which ran from Chester to Colchester and the Domesday entry indicates that Tarporley was a small agricultural settlement in Norman times (http://www.tarporley.org.uk/about/history/ History of Tarporley). The village developed during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries as it was on the route used by many traders travelling by coach between London and Chester as well as those dealing in salt mined in nearby Nantwich; it is now bypassed by the A49 and A51 roads (http://www.tarporley.net/main/about.htm About Tarporley).
