Introducing Cheshire

The favourite county of residence for the soccerati millionaires of Manchester and Liverpool, largely agricultural Cheshire is a very black-and-white kind of place – if you focus on the genuine half-timbered Tudor farmhouses and the Friesian cows that graze in the fields around them. It’s a little bit of ye olde Englande, which is probably why so many footballers choose to live in the mansions and monstrosities behind the top-grade security gates: nothing gives the illusion of good taste like a bit of bling and tradition. For the rest of us, however, handsome, gentle Cheshire is mostly about Chester.
