Warrington expanded and urbanised rapidly alongside the Industrial Revolution, particularly after the Mersey was made navigable in the 18th century. There are a number of Georgian properties and developments of the period included the Holy Trinity Church at Market Gate, now a Grade II listed building constructed in 1758.

There are large numbers of Victorian properties, take for example the row of late Victorian terracotta clad shops on Bridge Street. The old St Ann's Church was built in 1869 and is now a rock climbing centre.

There are also many 20th century standard construction properties, such as the large semi-detached houses in Lindi Avenue, Grappenhall, built in the 1930s.

Spacious new build detached houses can be found in Rush Green Road in the Lymm area and modern terraced houses in Thellwall Road, Latchford.

According to the UK Government's Public Health England, some buildings in the west of Warrington, for example in the Great Sankey area, in streets such as Tankerley Grove and Maliston Road, are in a raised radon area, with properties built there having a higher probability than average of experiencing ground Radon emissions. The raised Radon area has a maximum radon potential of 1-3% (the percentage is the chance of a property being built where Radon emissions might measure above the action level).
