About

Lymm sits in southeastern Warrington, bordered by the Bridgewater Canal and the M6 motorway. The area's centre is defined by the large village of Lymm itself, which extends to include the neighbourhoods of Oughtrington and Rushgreen. Its landscape is characterised by a mix of residential development and green spaces, with Lymm Dam and the surrounding woodland providing a significant natural feature within the settlement.

The historic core of Lymm village clusters around its sandstone church and a crossroads, with many local businesses situated along Eagle Brow and Pepper Street. The area is notably defined by the Bridgewater Canal, which runs through it and is crossed by a distinctive, high sandstone bridge. This waterway, along with the older Lymm Dam, has long influenced the area's layout and continues to be a focal point for recreation and local history.
