Welcome to Oakwood

Oakwood is a small village located in the county of Cheshire, England. The village is situated on the outskirts of the town of Runcorn and is surrounded by beautiful countryside. Oakwood is a peaceful and tranquil place, perfect for those who want to escape the hustle and bustle of city life. The village is home to a small community of residents who are proud of their heritage and the natural beauty of their surroundings.

One of the most notable features of Oakwood is its proximity to the River Mersey. The river is a major waterway in the north-west of England and is an important part of the local ecosystem. The river provides a habitat for a wide range of wildlife, including fish, birds, and mammals. Oakwood residents are proud of their connection to the river and work hard to protect its natural beauty.

Oakwood is also home to a number of historic buildings and landmarks. One of the most notable is the Oakwood Clock Tower, which was built in the late 19th century. The clock tower is a symbol of the village's heritage and is a popular tourist attraction. Other historic buildings in Oakwood include the village church and the old schoolhouse. These buildings are a testament to the village's rich history and are a source of pride for the local community.
