Farndon, Chester, CH3 6NS

Farndon is a village and civil parish in the unitary authority of Cheshire West and Chester and the ceremonial county of Cheshire, England. It is on the banks of the River Dee, south of Chester, which here forms the England–Wales border. The Welsh village of Holt lies just over the River Dee from Farndon. Farndon sits 8 miles south of Chester, a cathedral city. The village’s position on the riverbank places it within a rural setting that borders the England–Wales frontier. Residents are within a short distance of the historic city of Chester, yet remain in a quiet, countryside environment. The proximity to the River Dee offers a natural riverside backdrop, and the nearby Welsh village of Holt provides a cross‑border community context. Overall, Farndon presents a modest, village‑style living area with a clear geographic identity tied to the River Dee and the nearby urban centre of Chester.
