Warrington Hospital is a health facility at Warrington in Cheshire, England. It is managed by Warrington & Halton Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust. History The hospital has its origins an isolation hospital which was constructed on the site in 1893. The Warrington Union Workhouse Infirmary was built on the same site and opened in 1898. The site was occupied by the Whitecross Military Hospital during the First World War. The infirmary became the Warrington Borough General Hospital in 1930 and it joined the National Health Service in 1948. Meanwhile the isolation hospital became known as the Aiken Street Hospital.
