Tarporley & District

Welcome to Tarporley and District U3A

The club was established in 2013, based in Tarporley, Cheshire - a village of some 2000 inhabitants and a rural catchment area of around similar size. Tarporley is situated near the A49/A51 between Chester (11 miles) and Nantwich (8 miles). In years gone by Tarporley was a coaching stop on the road between London and Chester.
