Abstract:
Statement of Significance: Warrington meeting house has high significance as an early nineteenth-century meeting house of simple but refined design which retains a very good range of original interior features. It has an attractive setting within the original burial ground. Evidential value: The burial ground and related records have the potential to add to the fund of knowledge about local Quakers. The building has medium evidential value. Historical value: There has been a meeting house on the site since 1725; it is of great significance in the history of dissent and the development of the Society of Friends in the Warrington area. It illustrates expansion of Quaker influence from the eighteenth century and the building and site have high historical value. Aesthetic value: The building is a good example of late Georgian design, superficially of simple form, but incorporating high quality detailing, particularly in the fine brickwork, the sash windows and some of the internal fittings. The meeting house is of simple elegant appearance and has high aesthetic value. Communal value: The meeting house and burial ground provide a green space in an otherwise very tough urban environment. The building is let to a variety of local groups and has high communal value.
