More about this scene
Modern-day Warrington aspires to city status, but the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle records that the village of Thelwall briefly held that honour. 'In the year 923 (AD) King Edward the Elder founded a city here and called it Thelwall', proclaims the inscription on the gable end of the Pickering Arms (seen on the right of the photograph).

I also attended dance classes in the room ...see more
