Bruche, Warrington

Bruche is a large suburb of Warrington, in the Warrington district, in the traditional county of Lancashire, England.[1][2]

It forms the old border of Poulton and Warrington.

In 2005 it was home to the Bruche Police Training Centre, a national police training centre.

It changed from Bruch sometime before 1888. You can still see the old name on the bridge over Padgate Brook.
