Comments: Cheshire is a county in the northwestern part of England, fronting on the Irish Sea, nestled between Wales and the Pennine Hills. In the 1st century A.D., the Romans built a fort on the site of an old Celtic earthworks, effectively founding the city. During the Barbarian invasions the shire was one of the centers of Romano-British resistance, not falling to the barbarians until the late 5th century. Later it became part of the Anglo-Saxon Kingdom of Mercia. Ecclesiastical authority is vested in the Archbishop of Canterbury . Agricultural pursuits are the main source of income, but there is some industry in a few of the larger towns.
