Cheshire Knowledge needed please.

I've just found a marriage record dated 1742 where the groom claims to be from Battlesfield, Cheshire. I've Googled and looked on Genuki but can't see a likely place. Any ideas?

Check out Nantwich...there was a huge battle there in 1644 re Royalists and Roundheads..although not officially called Battlefield - that area was known as Battlefield....that`s the only place I can think of....allan ps...maybe there is an area of Nantwich called Battlefield

Thanks Allan - will try Nantwich :)

There's one possibility b 1715. Still don't know if he's mine though....
