Chesney Winter-Brown (also Brown and Battersby-Brown) is a fictional character from the British ITV soap opera Coronation Street, played by Sam Aston. He made his first on-screen appearance on 10 November 2003. The character is named after the singer, Chesney Hawkes.

Chesney is the younger brother of Fiz Brown (Jennie McAlpine) and son of Cilla Battersby-Brown (Wendi Peters). He is also a father of 5 (3 sons and 2 daughters, 1 is a singleton and the other 4 are quadruplets) and engaged to Gemma Winter (Dolly-Rose Campbell). Chesney's storylines have included: his friendship with pet dog Schmeichel and coming to terms with the loss of his beloved pet, as well as his relationship with Katy Armstrong (Georgia May Foote) who later went on to give birth to his son Joseph aged just seventeen. Chesney later began a relationship with Sinead Tinker (Katie McGlynn) in 2013 and was stabbed with a glass bottle during an incident at Nick's Bistro in 2017. Within days of the incident, he made a full recovery.
