In the Domesday Book Sandbach appears as Sanbec & by 1260 is recorded as Sondbache. It has been a Market Town since 1579 when Queen Elizabeth I granted the charter. Over 100 years ago the Elworth/ Sandbach name of Foden became synonymous with steam powered road transport worldwide. Later ERF & Foden manufactured diesel powered vehicles at their Sandbach plants. Fodens band is still based in Sandbach & still as popular as ever. Wheelock is one of the Sandbach suburbs visited in this book mentioned in the Domesday Book as Hoilech or Hoilock.
