Hatherton is a hamlet and civil parish in the unitary authority of Cheshire East and the ceremonial county of Cheshire, England. The hamlet is located on the B5071 at SJ687474, 2 3?4 miles (4.4 km) to the north east of Audlem and 3 3?4 miles (6.0 km) to the south east of Nantwich. The civil parish has an area of 673 hectares (1,660 acres) and also includes the small settlements of Birchall Moss, Broomlands and part of Artlebrook, with a total population of 360 in 2011. Nearby villages include Hankelow, Stapeley, Walgherton, Wybunbury, Blakenhall and Buerton.

The A529 runs through the parish and the River Weaver forms the western boundary. The Hatherton Flush Site of Special Scientific Interest is a wetland by the Weaver that supports marsh helleborine, marsh lousewort and tubular water dropwort, which are rare in Cheshire. The 18th-century Hatherton Manor farmhouse is listed at grade II*, and there are several listed country houses. The hamlet has a Methodist chapel.

History:

Haretone was a small manor at the time of the Domesday survey of 1086, and was held by William Malbank, Baron of Wich Malbank (Nantwich), with an annual value of 10 shillings. Before the Norman Conquest, it had been held by Ulfkil, when it had been valued at £2. Five households were recorded, interpreted as a manor house, lodge and two farms, as well as five ploughlands and a small wood. The old Hatherton Hall was replaced by a farmhouse. During the Civil War, Sir Thomas Smythe of Hatherton was a Parliamentarian who was among the Cheshire gentry who signed the "Cheshire Remonstrance" of 1642.

The parish had two Methodist chapels. The earliest dates from 1864, and is a Primitive Methodist chapel on Crewe Road (now the B5071). A Wesleyan Methodist chapel was constructed on Audlem Road (now the A529) in 1900; it closed in 1968. During the First World War, eighty German prisoners-of-war were interned in Hatherton and employed as agricultural labourers, and the stables of The Broomlands near Birchall Moss served as an equine hospital. The stables were later converted into dwellings and a village store and post office, which has since closed.

In 1881, more than two-thirds of the men in the parish were engaged in agriculture. Hatherton was within the Delves-Broughton estate until it was broken up in around 1920. In the 1960s, the Co-operative Wholesale Society bought many local farms and ran them as Co-op farms. The 1967–68 outbreak of foot-and-mouth disease caused major problems for dairy farms in the Wybunbury area, including Joseph Heler's in Hatherton. The parish remained largely rural in 1990, with only minimal development noted since the 1960s.
