History
Bradwall civil parish was originally part of Sandbach Ancient Parish, and was created a separate parish from it in 1866. It also was part of Nantwich Hundred, Congleton Poor Law Union, Rural Sanitary District, and (after 1866) it formed part of Congleton Rural District[2] until 1974, when it became part of the Borough of Congleton.
In terms of parliamentary representation, the Bradwall area (including the time when it was not a separate civil parish) was in the Cheshire Southern Division from 1832 to 1867; in the Cheshire Mid Division, from 1867 to 1885; in the Eddisbury Division, from 1885 to 1918; in the Northwich Division, from 1918 to 1948; from 1948 it was in Knutsford County Constituency,[2] but it is currently in Congleton County Constituency.[3]
Bradwall Hall, now demolished, was the home of John Latham, M.D., (1761-1843) president of the Royal College of Physicians.
