Governance
The civil parish is administered jointly with the adjacent parish of Weston.[1] The Weston and Basford Parish Council meets monthly and discusses a wide range of community issues.[2] From 1974 the civil parish was served by Crewe and Nantwich Borough Council, which was succeeded on 1 April 2009 by the new unitary authority of Cheshire East [3]. Basford falls in the parliamentary constituency of Crewe and Nantwich,[4] which has been represented by Edward Timpson since a by-election in 2008.
