Whiteley Green is a small rural community of properties, some distant from the public highway, and including the Windmill Inn<\/a>. There are no shops or services in the area which is entirely in Adlington parish.<\/p>\n

Whiteley Green starts against the last house in Adlington Road<\/a>, Bollington. The first couple of hundred metres is called Lodge Brow, being a winding and narrow road through the wood to the top of the hill and the drive entrance to Lodge Farm. More on brows<\/a>. Sugar Lane is populated by scattered farms and houses with a concentration around the junction with Holehouse Lane. There is a further group near to Styperson Pool. Holehouse Lane crosses the Macclesfield Canal<\/a> (br.25) and the Middlewood Way<\/a> which pass through the area. Redesmere Close is alongside between them, together with a visitor parking area. The Windmill Inn is just below the Middlewood Way. The main part of the hamlet is a collection of nice country houses and cottages, including a working farm, on Holehouse Lane. Peggies Lane branches off here and is the driveway to two houses before becoming a footpath towards Adlington settlement.<\/p>\n
