Backford Cross is a village on the Wirral Peninsula, Cheshire, England. It is a suburb of the town of Ellesmere Port and part of Cheshire West and Chester. Backford Cross is located around the A41/A5117 junction, south of Great Sutton and about 1.5 miles (2 km) north of the village of Backford, near Chester. Backford Cross is largely made up of residential homes built from 1990 onwards and serves as a commuter village to Ellesmere Port and Chester, although inhabitants show no allegiance to either locality. The area is split between postcode districts, with parts of the village in Great Sutton, Ellesmere Port CH66 and other areas in Backford, Chester CH1.
