  Hatherton was first recorded in the Domesday survey as Haretone. The 18th-century Hatherton Manor farmhouse is listed at grade II*, and there are also grade-II-listed timber-framed and brick farmhouses and former country houses. The hamlet has a Methodist chapel. The Hatherton Flush Site of Special Scientific Interest is a wetland by the Weaver that supports marsh helleborine, marsh lousewort and tubular water dropwort, which are rare in Cheshire.

  Several listed buildings are located within the parish, one of which is designated as grade II*, the middle of the three grades, denoting "particularly important buildings of more than special interest": Hatherton Manor, off Audlem Road (A529), is a farmhouse of five bays in orange-red brick with stone dressings, dating from 1703. There are two storeys, plus a basement and attics, under a tiled roof, and the main entrance is approached by a flight of stone steps. Of the buildings listed at grade II, the oldest is Yew Tree Farmhouse on Audlem Road, a 16th-century, timber-framed house with a tiled roof, featuring small framing infilled with brick. Birchall Moss Hall, also on Audlem Road, is a timber-framed, rendered former farmhouse with small framing and a tiled roof, dating originally from the late 16th or 17th century.
  Several brick houses built between the 17th and mid-19th centuries are also listed at grade II. Part of Park House on Park Lane dates from the 17th century and is in brick described by Historic England as "plum coloured". The three-bay main façade dates from the early 19th century and uses orange-red brick with stone dressings; it features a Tuscan porch. Bank House, on Audlem Road by Oakes Corner, dates originally from the late 17th or early 18th century, and is in plum-coloured brick with stone dressings under a tiled roof. Hatherton House on Broad Lane dates originally from the late 18th or early 19th century. Its three-storey, three-bay main façade is in red brick with stone dressings, with decorative yellow-brick quoins. The arched ashlar doorway features pilasters and carved wreaths; above it is a first-floor window whose stone surround is topped with a pediment. The early 19th-century Hatherton Lodge stands on Lodge Lane, on the site of an earlier lodge, and is described by Historic England as an example of the Picturesque Movement. The L-shaped villa has a stucco-rendered front façade of three bays with stucco quoins. The central limestone portico with Tuscan columns has a bow window above it. The Broomlands on Birchall Moss Lane is a large mid-19th-century former country house, now divided into three, which has a rendered finish and a slate roof. The entrance front has a colonnade porch with stone Doric columns, and the five-bay garden façade features two small bows. A disused 19th-century road bridge over Birchall Brook, on the boundary with Hankelow, is also listed; it is in red brick with stone dressings.
