Stockton Heath Stockton Heath is a highly desirable South Warrington village and the property is within easy walking distance and sure to be very popular for those looking to be close to all the local bars, restaurants and shopping facilities. The educational facilities are also to a high standard and the M6 and M56 motorways are located within a few miles ensuring ease of access to the major North West towns, cities and airports. Local Information Stockton Heath is a civil parish and suburb of Warrington, Cheshire, England. It is located to the north of the Bridgewater Canal, which divides Stockton Heath from Latchford and North Warrington. It has a total resident population of 6,396. Victoria Square is at the centre of Stockton Heath and is on the crossroads of the A49 and A56. Until the 1970s, the Victoria Hotel stood on this square but its location has been redeveloped. North of the square is the main shopping area which includes the Forge Shopping Centre, developed on the site of the old forge (Caldwell's). Stockton Heath is home to a number of modern bars and restaurants, as well as traditional public houses. The Red Lion Inn dates back to the early 19th century and the Mulberry Tree on Victoria Square, opened in its present building (replacing earlier premises dating from 1725) in March 1907. History Early maps refer to a hamlet by the name of Stoken or Stocken where the present village of Stockton Heath now stands. However, more detailed old maps of the area of Acton Grange show a sparsely populated hamlet and refers only to the old buildings and bridges recognisable today in street names in the area, such as Whitefield Cottage. The Bridgewater Canal, one of two canals that pass through the village, reached Stockton Heath in 1772, the year of the death of its designer, James Brindley. In the 1900s George Formby Senior moved his young family to Stockton Heath and it was from here that George Formby Junior began his entertainment career. Their house, Hillcrest, is a listed building. George Formby Senior died in Stockton Heath in 1921. In 1974, Stockton Heath, historically part of Cheshire, became incorporated into the borough of Warrington under the Local Government Act 1972. Warrington Warrington is now one of the most vibrant and energetic development areas in Europe. Roman settlement, Civil War conflict, Victorian expansion, Warrington's history is certainly as varied as it is vibrant. Yet for all its history, Warrington is no living museum, far from it. It is an ever-changing, developing community that, while aware of its past, is definitely looking to the future. So alongside reminders of the past, such as the imposing grandeur of the Town Hall with its famous Golden Gates, there is one of the North West's larger town centre shopping areas and the excellent Parr Hall concert hall and the Pyramid Arts Centre. Continued On its outskirts can be found excellent 'out of town' facilities such as Gemini Park, where IKEA chose to build their first outlet in the UK and also the largest Marks & Spencer store outside of London, and in contrast, some excellent parks including Birchwood Forest Park, Sankey Valley Park and Walton Hall. And besides the many attractions of Warrington and surrounding area, with excellent motorway and rail connections, Liverpool, Manchester, London and North Wales are all within easy reach. With its unique character and air of optimism, living in Warrington gives a definite feeling of belonging."
