Crewe: Area, History and Background

Riding are well acquainted with the United Kingdom, its cities and towns.

Below is some historic, cultural and background information about the area of Crewe in the United Kingdom.

• Crewe is a railway town within the unitary authority area of Cheshire East and the ceremonial county of Cheshire, England.
• According to the 2001 census the urban area had a population of 67,683.
• Crewe is perhaps best known as a large railway junction and home to Crewe Works.
• It was not formally planned out until 1843 by Joseph Locke.
• Crewe was thus named after the railway station, rather than the other way round.
• It was founded in the township of Monks Coppenhall which, with the township of Church Coppenhall, formed the ancient parish of Coppenhall.
• Crewe's railway station was named after the township of Crewe.
• Until the Grand Junction Railway company chose it as the site for its locomotive works and railway station in the late 1830s, it was a village with a population of just 70 residents.
• Winsford, seven miles to the north of Crewe, had rejected an earlier proposal, as had local landowners in neighbouring Nantwich, four miles away.
• It railway station was built in fields near to Crewe Hall and was completed in 1837.
• Crewe has a large park, Queen's Park, the land for which was donated by the London and North Western Railway.
• Bill Bryson described it as "the armpit of Cheshire" in his 1995 book "Notes from a Small Island".
• A planned redevelopment of Crewe's town centre,including the current Bus Station and main shopping area have currently been abandoned because of "difficult economic conditions", according to the former developers Modus.
• It is well represented with Supermarkets, Asda, Tesco, and Morrison's all enjoying representation.
• Crewe's Nightlife is well below average, and the 6,000 students at MMU, tend to stay on campus.
