The Academy
The Academy at the bottom of Bridge Street, now home to the Warrington Guardian Newspaper Offices. It was originally a teaching establishment from 1756 to 1782 when it closed but in that time, it had gained a reputation as a dissenters' institute (it opposed the state church in England). Sometime after its closure, it was moved from its original location to where it stands now. There is a statue of Oliver Cromwell outside the building.

"I'm sure we had a nest here somewhere"
While I mooched around taking snaps of the demolition of the Market Car Park I saw these rather sad looking pigeons. They would fly away and then come back. Fly away then come back. Clearly they were baffled about what had happened to their home. If they weren't 'rats with wings' it would be heart-breaking.

Bridge Foot, Warrington
The bridge is to the right, with the old A49 London road coming down from the left. Its junction with the A57 road from Liverpool was in the town centre. Both roads have been diverted and now meet here. Cromwell's statue stands outside the Warrington Academy building, a non-conformist university which saw scientists like Joseph Priestley through its portals. In 1981 it was moved 19 metres bodily back from its original site to create space for the new road junction.
