Hassall Green is a village in the civil parish of Betchton in the unitary authority of Cheshire East and the ceremonial county of Cheshire, England.

The village formerly had a railway station on the North Staffordshire Railway (NSR) branch line to Sandbach from Harecastle,[1] and is also on the Trent & Mersey Canal.

The Romping Donkey public house in the village closed in 2010 and is now a private house.[2] It is a Grade II listed building.[3]

St Philip's Church is a tin tabernacle church that originally stood on the site of St Mary Magdalene's Church in nearby Alsager. It was bought for £150 and re-erected in Hassall Green in 1895.[4]
