Landscaped path, Widnes Waterfront
Landscaped path, Widnes Waterfront
The Widnes Waterfront Regeneration Programme was developed to transform over 300 acres of former chemical works on the north bank of the River Mersey into a mixed use area, providing a place for businesses to locate and for people to enjoy. The programme began in 2002 using European and UK Government funding and has since attracted further private sector investment.

To the left of the path, is a preserved reminder of the industrial past; possibly connected with the kilns which were used to burn pyrites in the manufacture of sulphuric acid?
