Roller rink
BOROUGH planning chiefs have been asked to consider an application to convert a former supermarket into a roller rink. The scheme involves the old Kwik Save store in Academy Street.
The scheme would not involve any alterations to the external appearance of the building.
If the scheme is given the go-ahead and the rink eventually opens it will be at least the third time Warrington has had a roller rink.
The two previous rinks were both in the same building – now demolished – off Winmarleigh Street.
