Burwardsley is a village and civil parish the unitary authority of Cheshire West and Chester and the ceremonial county of Cheshire, England.[1] The parish also includes the small villages of Burwardsley, Burwardsley Hill, and Higher Burwardsley.[1] The parish is part of two Cheshire long-distance footpaths, the Sandstone Trail,[2] and the Eddisbury Way.[3][4]

The parish church of St John the Divine in Burwardsley dates back to 1730.[5] The village has a village shop with post office and a pub, The Pheasant Inn, with views over the Cheshire plains to Wales and Merseyside.[5] The pub claims to date back to 1650, when there were three ale houses in Burwardsley, although it was not called The Pheasant until the 1970s.[5]

The former primary school has been converted into an outdoor education centre.[5]
