Daresbury

Daresbury is a small rural village in Cheshire, northern England, south of Warrington. It is covered by the Warrington South constituency. The most notable things about Daresbury are that it was the home town of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland author Lewis Carroll (real name Charles Dodgson), and that the CCLRC Daresbury Laboratory possesses a rather large particle accelerator, the Synchrotron Radiation Source. Controversy arose in the late 1990s when Diamond, a new synchrotron light source planned for installation at the Laboratory, went instead to the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory, near Abingdon in Oxfordshire. Daresbury has become a place of pilgrimage because of the Lewis Carroll association. The Church has a series of Lewis Carroll windows and there is a small shop inside.
