Warrington is close to Liverpool and Manchester and within easy reach of the Peak District, North Wales and the Lake District.
With a busy town centre, Warrington is also blessed with fabulous parks, glorious canals and wonderful countryside too just waiting to be explored including Rixton Claypits, Lymm Dam, Risley Moss, Woolston Eyes and Walton Hall and Gardens.
The Nightingale Building (or Halton General Hospital) is located in Runcorn, a town in the southeast of the Liverpool City Region on the southern bank of the River Mersey and only 7 miles away from Warrington. The ruins of Halton Castle are a beautiful historic landmark situated on top of Halton Hill near the town centre. A walk to the top gives excellent views from the castle grounds. Despite the industrialization of the area and density of housing, Runcorn has green spaces on Runcorn Hill and in the extensive Town Park.
