Centred on a village green, it is located in the unitary authority of Cheshire West and Chester between Neston and Ellesmere Port, less than a mile south of the Metropolitan Borough of Wirral boundary. It is located very closely to Eastham and Bromborough and just a short distance away from Neston. At the 2001 Census, the total population of Willaston and Thornton ward was 4,913. History Willaston (or ''Wilaveston'') was the earlier name of the Wirral Hundred (''Hundred of Wilaveston''), the peninsula's former administrative division, and one of the Hundreds of Cheshire.

Later the village became a township within the parish of Neston, the largest settlement on the Wirral until the early 19th century. W ...

Ightfield
Ightfield is a small village and civil parish in Shropshire, England. The population of the parish at the 2011 census was 529. Within the civil parish boundaries is another small village - Calverhall. Ightfield is situated in a rural area, with many of its roots being in farming. In fact, the name could be derived from the Old English 'Ihtfeld' collocated from 'iht'= creature + 'feld'= field. This would be plausible considering the area's long agricultural history. Over the years, the number of farmers in the area has declined, with only a handful remaining. Due to the reduced amount of agricultural activity, the village expanded slightly, with the addition of two new housing estates built on previously agricultural land. It was mentioned in the hundred of Hodnet as ''Istefelt'' in the Domesday Book in 1086. Though not as large as some parishes in the area, it had its own priest, which implies an established community which had its own church. In the 12th century the parish b ...
