Selling or buying a home with our Widnes Conveyancing Solicitors
Widnes is an industrial town in Cheshire and was historically classed as being in Lancashire – it's on the north bank of the River Mersey. Its development from being a fairly small settlement was marked after John Hutchinson established a chemical factory in Spike Island in the later period of the Industrial Revolution and the town is still associated with chemical manufacture although much of its employment is now given over to the service sector. The industrial jobs created in its Victorian expansion were frequently filled by Polish, Irish and Lithuanian immigrant labour.
Landmarks and attractions include the Grade II listed Silver Jubilee Bridge to Runcorn, opened in 1961, Victoria Promenade at West Bank, Spike Island (now an open recreation area which leads to footpaths along the former towpath of the Sankey Canal and the Catalyst Science Discovery Centre. It is of course also particularly known for its Widnes Viking Rugby League Football Club, which has won numerous pieces of silverware, both nationally and internationally, over the years.

Which Property Searches Do You Need?
Buying a home can be a large investment in itself. The high value of the property should indicate the degree of care needed to investigate if there are any risks or threats to the property and the surrounding area that could affect the value of your investment.
Ordering searches from the Halton Borough Council is the best way to reveal if there are any hidden secrets or possible issues with the property. These can include pollution, subsidence, planning permissions, preservation orders, radon gas seepage, liability to pay money to the church for disrepair and flooding risks.
We always recommend you book at least four searches; environmental, local authority, drainage and chancel repair. These may flag up additional recommended searches such as Mining, HS2 and Flood Risk Report which your solicitor can advise you on.
