Warrington has a long history thanks to its strategic location on the crossing of the river Mersey, which has served as a lifeline for trade and commerce through the ages. In the ancient times, Roman legions had set up camp in Warrington. The town expanded to the opposite bank of the Mersey under the Saxons and continued to prosper in the Norman era. But its key location invited the wrath of Oliver Cromwell during the civil war in the 17th century. The controversial leader’s troops completely destroyed Warrington. The resilient town wrested from the Royalists rose again from the ashes and re-established itself as a leading centre of trade and culture. That prosperity continues till the present day.
There’s plenty to do and see in and around Warrington – for history buffs, sports enthusiasts and rock-n-roll fans alike.
Being the birthplace of famous children’s novelist Lewis Carroll, Warrington boasts an “Alice in Wonderland” statue depicting the famous scene of the Mad Hatter’s Tea Party.

And to entice shopping enthusiasts, downtown Warrington is choc-a-block with swanky retail stores.
