Peover

Peover is a rural area in Cheshire, England. It is southwest of Chelford and northwest of Jodrellbank.

It contains Peover Superior (also called Over Peover), and Peover Inferior (also called Lower Peover or Nether Peover) , and Peover Heath.

The area is largely flat but has narrow incised gullies along streams.

Springs and field drainage in the Peover area join to make a brook called Peover Eye, which runs away north-northwest and runs into the Wincham Brook a bit northeast of Lostock Gralam.

Peover is mentioned in the Domesday Book as "Pevre", from a Celtic word meaning "the bright one" referring to the Peover Eye.
