Horton-by-Malpas is a former civil parish, now in the parish of Shocklach Oviatt and District, in the borough of Cheshire West and Chester and ceremonial countyofCheshireinEngland. In 2001 it had a population of 62.[1] The parish included the hamlet of Horton Green.

History[edit]

The name Horton derives from Old English horu 'dirt' and tūn 'settlement, farm, estate', presumably meaning 'farm on muddy soil'.[2]

Horton was formerly a township in the parish of Tilston,[3] in 1866 Horton became a separate civil parish.[4] From 1974 to 2009 it was in Chester district. On 1 April 2015 the parish was abolished to form Shocklach Oviatt and District.[5]

Horton Grange was built in 1629 and subsequently altered. It is timber-framed with brick nogging, and partly rebuilt in brick, with slate roofs. It is in two storeys, and consists of a main wing and two cross-wings.[6] The building is Grade IIlisted.

Horton Green[edit]

The small hamlet of Horton Green lay within the parish. The hamlet is recorded as "Horton Green" in 1831, but had been known as "Horton" as early as 1240.
