Wheelock (Cheshire)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Wheelock is a long village in Cheshire in England, near Sandbach on the road to Crewe.
Before its bypass was opened, among lorry drivers Wheelock was notorious for a vicious little hill up to a bridge over a small river near the junction with Zan Lane, particularly when winter weather made the road icy.
Zan Lane leads to a small industrial area.
It was named after the River Wheelock.
