About Warrington

Warrington is a large town in Cheshire, on the River Mersey and close to the M62, M6 and M56 motorways and midway between Liverpool and Manchester airports.

Warrington also has a range of cultural attractions that include Warrington Museum And Art Gallery, The Pyramid Arts Centre and nature reserves and parks at Woolston Eyes, Risley Moss, Rixton Claypits and Paddington Meadows.
