THE passion of primary school pupils for their history project has led to a wider effort to preserve part of Warrington’s heritage for future generations. Children at Bruche Primary School recently took part in a research project surrounding the town’s role in the English Civil War Year six pupils spent their last term at the school learning all about the Battle of Winwick, a major engagement in August 1648 that saw Oliver Cromwell’s army defeat their royalist opponents on land near the village. Such was their enthusiasm about the need to preserve the battlefield site for future generations that they wrote to Warrington North MP Charlotte Nichols to ask for her support.
