From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Marton, Cheshire is a small village and civil parish in Cheshire, England on the A34 road 3 miles (5 km) north of Congleton (grid reference SJ850682).

Its outstanding feature is its 14th century timber–framed church. A plaque outside the church claims it is the oldest timber-framed church still in use in Europe. Marton is also home to the oldest oak in Cheshire which has been estimated at over 600 years old.[1]
