Warrington Walk City Center Virtual Walk #gimbalwalkwithme

Warrington is an industrial town in the borough of the same name in Cheshire, England. The town sits on the banks of the River Mersey and until 1974, was part of Lancashire. It is 19 miles (31 km) east of Liverpool, and 18 miles (29 km) west of Manchester.

The population in 2019 was estimated at 165,456 for the town's urban area, and 210,014 for the wider borough,the latter being more than double that of 1968 when it became a new town. Warrington is the largest town in the ceremonial county of Cheshire.

Warrington was founded by the Romans at an important crossing place on the River Mersey. A new settlement was established by the Saxon Wærings. By the Middle Ages, Warrington had emerged as a market town at the lowest bridging point of the river. A local tradition of textile and tool production dates from this time.

The expansion and urbanisation of Warrington coincided with the Industrial Revolution, particularly after the Mersey was made navigable in the 18th century. The West Coast Main Line runs north to south through the town, and the Liverpool to Manchester railway (the Cheshire Lines route) west to east. The Manchester Ship Canal cuts through the south of the borough (west to east). The M6, M56 and M62 motorways form a partial box around the town and are all accessible through Warrington.

The modern Borough of Warrington was formed in 1974 with the amalgamation of the former County Borough of Warrington, part of the Golborne Urban District, the Lymm Urban District, part of the Runcorn Rural District, the Warrington Rural District and part of the Whiston Rural District.

I am originally from very near Warrington and lived there until I was 19. I always tell people I am from Warrington. However, I never really went to Warrington town centre in my youth, I used to go to Wigan as my father was from there. I occasionally went out in Warrington as a teenager, including a terrible nightclub called Mr Smiths - but it was only a handful of times. To be honest, I'm shocked at how nice the place is. They have done what all local Councils should do is PLANT TREES to break up the concrete facades and create pleasant spaces. However, there are also some beautiful old building there, I never knew existed. This has been a real eye opener for me. It makes me feel proud to be from there now instead of embarrassed.

At about 9:15 in the video, you come within inches of walking over the very spot where one of the bombs was detonated in the 1993 Warrington bombings. The street you are walking down there is Bridge Street. The memorial of the two kids that you stop to look at is for Tim Parry and Jonathan Ball, two children who were killed on Bridge Street in the bombings.
The building with the closed down shop just off camera to your immediate left at 9:15 with the bench directly in front is the front entrance to what was Boots the chemist back then. More or less where that bench is sat right in front of the doors to the building now, there used to be a metal bin stood there. It was in that bin that one of the bombs was planted.

It looks like a nice town to visit, the town centre looks nice and fresh. I always prefer pedestrian areas and outdoor eating. Nice informative video.

[jaynewton]

Nice and clean city centre, fair enough.

Byłam w Warrington, piękne mam wspomnienia, min. z kościoła katolickiego, w którym nie pobiera się opłat za sakramenty. Dzięki Jarku za film. Pozdrawiam serdecznie🤗

I lived in Warrington in 1986 until 87, its totally changed..still recognise some of the town centre, but not all.

[jagab]

Dziękuję za przyjemny spacer, serdeczne pozdrowienia.

[jaynewton]

Good old warrington.
Does anyone remember the ground working company called roots and shoots that put these flowers all over the town centre and especially the town hall.
No, I didn't think so.

[kevinworrall]

The last census for Warrington was 212 thousand people, I remember in the 70, s it was just over 70 thousand people. We became a Newtown in the 70s but for me Warrington is just big enough as it is now

[ZulikifalFaroo]

Love to see this center after almost ten years I am still missing the lovely united kingdom

[kevinworrall]

Very proud of my town, it's actually bigger than a lot of cities

[jaynewton]

Has anyone noticed the symbol on the floor leading upto the fountain.

[jaynewton]

Oh, and there is a cheeky pound land in the midst.
