Frodsham
Frodsham is a market community, civil parish and electoral ward in the unitary authority of Cheshire West as well as Chester as well as the ritualistic area of Cheshire, England. Its population was 8,982 in 2001, boosting to 9,077 at the 2011 Census. It is around 3 miles (5 kilometres) south of Runcorn, 16 miles (26 kilometres) south of Liverpool, as well as 28 miles (45 km) southwest of Manchester. The River Weaver goes to its northeast and on the west it neglects the estuary of the River Mersey. The A56 road and also the Chester-- Manchester railway line travel through the community, and the M56 motorway passes to the northwest. In middle ages times Frodsham was an essential borough and port coming from the Earls of Chester. Its parish church, St. Laurence's, still exhibits evidence of a building present in the 12th century in its nave as well as is referenced in Domesday Book. A market is held each Thursday, and also Frodsham's viability as a trading centre was stressed by the visibility of the "big five" getting rid of financial institutions as well as a number of building societies, though the branches of HSBC as well as NatWest have actually recently shut. Advancement in the town's stores and properties with alcohol permits appears through the recent (post-2002) opening or modernisation of contemporary-style bar/restaurants, take-away food shops and also hostelries, and in the continued existence of small, specialist, companies running from town-centre stores.
