a town in NW England, in Cheshire: salt and chemical industries. Pop: 39 568 (2001)

Northwich, famous for its salt mines, was the only town of any consequence until we reached Chester.

The classic event at Northwich was the upsetting of a house called "Castle Chambers," occupied at the time by a solicitor.

Underneath Northwich is a sea of brine which lies on the top of the upper bed of salt rock.

Truly Northwich lives and moves and has its being in salt, and promises to be buried in it too.
