Attractions and Places to Visit in Warrington

Warrington has been welcoming visitors for over 2000 years. It's location is a big plus. It’s close to Liverpool and Manchester and within easy reach of the Peak District, North Wales and the Lake District even the Trans-Pennine Trail passes through the borough.

In a region of heavy industry, Warrington ballooned during the 1960s when it was earmarked as a “New Town”.

The town museum is a wonderful grab bag of archaeology, natural history and art, while the council owns two fine mansions.
The Palladian Bank Hall is now Warrington Town Hall, and Walton Hall is an events venue with a park at the heart of the community.
