A fact from Acton, Cheshire appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 26 February 2008, and was viewed approximately 1,875 times ( disclaimer) ( check views). The text of the entry was as follows: Did you know... that listed structures in the parish of Acton in Cheshire include an aqueduct (pictured), sundial, icehouse, clock tower, telephone box and a statue of a dog upsetting a food bowl? A record of the entry may be seen at Wikipedia:Recent additions/2008/February.

1. Stub needs to be massively expanded using Wikipedia:WikiProject UK geography/How to write about settlements as a guide.
2. Photos need to be added.
3. References and Citations are crucial for wikipedia, and so these must be added as the article is expanded. (See WP:References, [[WP:V], and WP:CITE for guidance.)

The following removed from article while sourcing is investigated:

"The legend of the Devil throwing stones at Acton Church, may also refer to the stones which marked out the boundary of an area of land to the south of the Church, which was part of Dodcott cum Wilkesley Township. They are shown on the 1ST Edition Ordnance Survey Maps (1875) of the area. This area of land is suggested to have been the carucate of land in the vill of Acton granted to Combermere Abbey in 1130AD(Dodgson, p. 126, The Place-Names of Cheshire, Volume XLVI, Part 3, 1971). Meaning that these stones would have been placed here as boundary markers by the monks of the Abbey, to mark out their land, and over the centuries formed the basis of the legend."

"there were at least four fatalities from the Wilmott Family." [during bombing in WW2]
