Station Architecture
The night-time lighting really helps to pick out the sweeping curves in the brickwork along the walls, and the cast iron pillars that support the roof.
At the far end of the southern platform is the signal box. The station was opened in 1873 by the Cheshire Lines Committee.

Cockhedge Centre, Warrington
The Cockhedge Centre is, predominantly, home to Asda but it is also home to a number of 'pound shops', vape stands, mobile phone accessory stalls and charity shops. It is impossible to pass through it without running the gauntlet of myriad 'chuggers' and Sky reps.

Spiral footbridge, Cockhedge Centre, Warrington
Opened in 1984, The Cockhedge Shopping Centre was constructed by Williams Tarr for Charterhall Properties.
Some of the interesting features include cast iron framed colonnades to reflect the architectural style of the Cockhedge Spinning Mill that formerly stood on the site, and an arched timber pedestrian link bridge over Scotland Road. This is linked to the Centre by a green spiral footbridge (which this photographer notes nervously, moves alarmingly in a mild breeze).

Warrington Central station
The building and canopy on the up (eastbound, towards Manchester) platform, seen from the down platform. The building and the canopy supports look very well cared for, so it is unfortunate that the canopy itself is not very photogenic.
