Runcorn CheshireWelcome to our page of information, attractions and places of interest around Runcorn. The Runcorn hotels listed below are either in the town or we have given a rough guide as to how far they are from Runcorn. From Runcorn you are well placed to explore the lush, undulating pastureland of the wide Cheshire Plain, half-timbered little towns and villages and the thriving urban cities of Manchester and Liverpool. We hope you enjoy your stay and find your ideal accommodation.

Runcorn is an industrial town on the southern banks of the River Mersey. Runcorn consists of the 'old town' which began expansion on farmland during the Industrial Revolution brought by the Bridgewater Canal; and the 'new town' which was built from the 1960s onwards to house overspill population from Liverpool. The town retains ruins of the 12th-century castle and the remains of Norton Priory, including its museum and walled garden are the main tourist attraction of the town. There is also a shopping centre (Halton Lea), and a dry ski slope. Runcorn is well served by roads, the M56 motorway passes to the south of the town, and fast Expressways run round and through the new town. It is within 15 minutes drive of Liverpool John Lennon Airport and is connected to Widnes across the Mersey by a rail bridge. Also see Runcorn.
