About Warrington - show infohide info

Warrington is a town in the north west of England, in the county of Cheshire. The population of the entire Warrington borough as of 2001 is 191,084, with 158,595 in the town itself. In Roman times, Warrington was a centre of industry, and was founded as a crossing point on the River Mersey, to allow Roman Soldiers to move north to Chester (Deva). It was a strategically useful point through medieval times also as a bridging point, with the Red Lion Inn being built for people using the bridge. Warrington later became involved in heavy industry during the Industrial Revolution, with a number of industries setting up in the town, including steelworks, textiles, brewing, tanning, and chemicals. The manufactuing of these products declined in the 1960s and 1970s, though some heavy industry is still located in the town. Warrington was also home to Burtonwood RAF base, which was one of the largest bases in England, and the largest US Air force base outside the USA. It saw regular celebrity visits to entertain the troops. The base closed in 1993. On 20th March 1993, the IRA detonated two bombs in Warrington Town Centre, in which two children were killed, causing widespread condemnation of the IRA. The bombs, however, did allow a makeover of Warrington town centre, Warrington is an important site for rail transport, for both passengers and freight.
