The picturesque village of Malpas has pretty black and white timber framed houses lining its streets, along with a raft of independent shops, cafes and pubs.
But there's also a hidden historic gem at the very heart of this beautiful village, which community leaders are hoping to make more accessible to visitors in the future.
For at the very highest point of the historic village is the Castle Hill Motte - the moat where once a tower would have stood, with a hidden dungeon beneath, thought to have been built back in the 11th century, along with a number of castles on the Cheshire ridge to protect the English borders from the Welsh.
