Thornton le Moors Tourist Information

Thornton Le Moors is a lovely little village, with much to offer. The village has a calm and peaceful atmosphere, where everyone gets along well together.

The village is kept well maintained by some of the locals. The park has a reasonable size football pitch; there is also has a small wooded area in the park were you can watch all the wildlife.

In the centre of the village is the parish church which is no longer open. There is a bell tower on the church, whose bell chimes every hour and can be heard all over the village.

Thornton Le Moors is a 5 minute drive away from Cheshire Oaks, which has good shopping facilities.

If you stand in the village at night time the sky is well lit by the flames from the oil refinery chimneys across the way in Stanlow.

Thornton Le Moors is mainly surrounded by fields, were you can take a stroll and nobody would bother you. The smell of the fresh countryside air is just second to none. From here you can sometimes see the birds of pray hovering above.

There is a farm shop on the edge of the village, where you can buy fresh fruit and vegetables also meat.

The village of Thornton Le Moors means a lot to me and most of the other villagers.
