  • New Brighton Kings Parade to Birkenhead Park
    New Brighton Kings Parade to Birkenhead Park Walking & Cycling: Continue along the sea front walk and cycle track. When the two separate at the far end Derby Pool car park, walkers stay on the sea defence path. Cyclists can push their cycles along this section. Alternatively cyclists can follow the signs for the Wirral Circular Trail to the main Leasowe Road and turn right. This is a 40mph dual carriage-way with no specific cycle routes at present. Leasowe Castle is then on your right. Continue straight along, bearing right to the Lighthouse when the main road turns left. If you stay on the sea defence path, Leasowe Castle and then the Lighthouse are on your left. Driving: At the last roundabout on Kings Drive, turn left for the M53, then at the 2nd roundabout, take 1st left along Harrison Drive onto Wallasey Village and right at the roundabout for the A551, Leasowe Road. Follow this road, noting the bypass flyover, past Leasowe Castle on the right and then the Lighthouse ahead. Heritage Site 5 Leasowe Castle: Built by the Earls of Derby in the late 16th century, this Grade II* ‘Castle’ has been altered and enlarged over the centuries, serving among other things as a sporting lodge, a castellated mansion, an hotel, a nobleman’s residence and a railwayman’s convalescent home. Today it is once again a hotel. Leasowe Castle Heritage Site 6 Leasowe Lighthouse: The oldest brick-built lighthouse in Britain, it was erected in 1763 by the Liverpool Docks Committee. Originally it was one of four lights on the north coast of Wirral, the others being two at Hoylake and another - a lower light - at Leasowe.

  • North Wirral Coast
    Near Dove Point on the North Shore. North Wirral Coast The North Wirral section of the Circular Trail takes you from Seacombe Ferry Terminal to West Kirby, via the rejuvenated New Brighton Resort with its Floral Pavilion, Fort Perch Rock, Lighthouse, Marine Lake and new Retail Park. The route continues along the promenade to Wallasey Beach and into North Wirral Coastal Park. The route then turns inland at The Gunsite, the location of World War II gun emplacements, to follow the Birket Cycle Route. Pedestrians can if they wish carry on along the embankment past Leasowe Common where in 1864 the oldest skeleton in Merseyside was found. 2 Moreton Beach is where the world’s first passenger hovercraft service operated to Rhyl in North Wales. The route joins North Shore near Leasowe Lighthouse, which is the oldest brick built lighthouse in the country. Together horse riders, walkers and cyclists can continue past the prehistoric sunken forest and onto Meols, famous for the number of archaeological metal finds that have been made there totalling over 5,000 and most of which date from 500BC to 1500AD. At King’s Gap, cyclists head inland, whilst pedestrians can continue along the foreshore or via Stanley Road to Red Rocks and onto West Kirby. 3 North Wirral Coast Seacombe - Tower Grounds 1 Seacombe Ferry Terminal and Spaceport This is one of two sites in Wirral from which you can take a trip on the Mersey Ferry to Liverpool. Also based here is the £10 million, space-themed attraction, Spaceport which takes you on an inspirational journey through space through the several themed galleries, all of which feature a large variety of interactive hands-on exhibits and audio visual experiences.

  • 159 \ Some History of the Coastwise Lights Of
    159 \ SOME HISTORY OF THE COASTWISE LIGHTS OF LANCASHIRE AND CHESHIRE PART II By E. Cuthbert Woods, L.D.S.R.C.S.(Eng.), F.R.Hist.S. \ Read 27 October, 1945. "DEFORE we leave the Mersey estuary, a word or two about -^-* the lightships may not be out of place. The earliest reference that I have found to a lightship per se, is the resolution passed by the Liverpool Council in 1759, to fix a vessel with two lights at the N.E. spit of the Hoyle Bank, " which will tend greatly to the preservation of lives and property, and hope it may induce our captains and masters to inform themselves how to bring a vessel into the Hoyle Lake, without, as was formerly the case, trusting to the chance of meeting a pilot." Twenty years earlier (1738), there is a resolution of the Cor­ poration " that an addition be made to the present dock, or basin, for light ships to lie in, whilst refitting . ." but this I take to mean ships which had discharged their cargo, and were " light." By 1811, the Mersey was beginning to be used by ships, in preference to the Hoyle Lake, and the mariners bringing ships into the port after dark had to rely on five lighthouses, viz. Pt. Lynas, Upper and Lower Hoylake, Leasowe, and Bidston. Some of the leading shipowners of Liverpool petitioned the Dock Committee to replace the North West Buoy by a lightship, as there were as yet no lighted buoys. The Dock Committee, having an act (53 George III) which empowered them to place a lightship on the N.W.
