In wet seasons it overflows Sefton meadowl:! to a large extent, and during the inundation, appears like an arm of the sea. " It is a generally received opinion," sa.y~ Mr. Baines, H that in remote times the Ribble and Mersey formed a single estuary. The sea has frequently thrown up sand banks; and the roots of trees, supposed to be the relics of a subteranean forest, are visible at low water on the sands near Crosby."

Walking and Cycling Guide to Sefton’S Natural Coast
Walking and Cycling Guide to Sefton’s Natural Coast www.seftonsnaturalcoast.com Altcar Dunes introduction This FREE guide has been published to encourage you to get out and about in Southport and Sefton. It has been compiled to help you to discover Sefton’s fascinating history and wonderful flora and fauna. Walking or cycling through Sefton will also help to improve your health and fitness. With its wide range of accommodation to suit all budgets, Southport makes a very convenient base. So make the most of your visit; stay over one or two nights and take in some of the easy, family-friendly walks, detailed in this guide. Why not ‘warm-up’ by walking along Lord Street with its shops and cafés and then head for the promenade and gardens alongside the Marine Lake. Or take in the sea air with a stroll along the boardwalk of Southport Pier before walking along the sea wall of Marine Drive to the Queen’s Jubilee Nature Trail or the new Eco Centre nearby. All the trails and walks are clearly signposted and suitable for all ages and abilities. However, as with all outdoor activities, please take sensible precautions against our unpredictable weather and pack waterproof clothing and wear suitable shoes. Don’t forget your sun cream during the Summer months. If cycling, make sure that your bike is properly maintained and wear a protective helmet at all times. It's also a good idea to include some food and drink in a small day-pack, as although re-fuelling stops are suggested on the listed routes, there is no guarantee that they will be open when you need them.

Annual Report on Project Activity Year Two: Nov 2016 – Oct 2017
Red Squirrels United Annual report on project activity Year two: Nov 2016 – Oct 2017 LIFE14 NAT/UK/000467 Action C1 Urban IAS grey squirrel management in North Merseyside Executive Summary Activities under Action C1 have been underway throughout the North Merseyside and West Lancashire area, carried out by the Community Engagement Officer and Red Squirrel Ranger. Staffing issues have meant there has been a 2 month gap in the Ranger post and a new member of staff but the post is now stable and grey squirrel control throughout the designated areas continues. Grey squirrel control continues in the towns through the urban trap loan scheme. Participation in the trap loan scheme has increased in Crosby after a successful urban trap loan workshop but effort now needs to be focused in Southport and Maghull. The Community Engagement Officer has run 18 events and workshops throughout the project area in this time to increase community awareness regarding the impact of grey squirrels as a non-native invasive species, particularly on the red squirrel. There is real passion from the local community to see red squirrels in the Southport parks again and this drives support for grey squirrel control. Red and grey squirrel sightings continue to be received from members of the public and all sightings and grey squirrel control data are recorded in a format approved by Newcastle University for their data analysis. Introduction The North Merseyside and West Lancashire red squirrel population is the southernmost population in mainland England and has provided socio-economic benefits to the local economy through tourism, attracting approximately 300,000 visitors per year.

FORMBY (Revised 7/4/98)
FORMBY of FORMBY The link with one of the many Formby families of Formby (a detached coastal township of Walton parish, Liverpool) occurred on 17 August 1778 when John Massam (1752–1817), father of Catherine Culshaw, married Anne Formby, at Formby chapel.1 Anne Formby and John Massam Anne Formby was probably the third child and eldest daughter of Thomas Formby, yeoman, baptised at Formby chapel on 16 March 1752. Although Anne and seven of her siblings received Church of England baptism, there seems to have been a change in the family’s religious allegiance between the baptism of Anne’s brother William in May 1764 and 1767, when the entire family appears in the ‛return of papists’ for the township.2 We have seen that Anne was married to John Massam at Formby on 17 August 1778. ‘Anne, wife of John Massam’ was buried at Formby on 29 March 1792. Origins Many Formby inhabitants were Roman catholic recusants. Eight families named Formby were listed as recusants there in 1626 and six in 1641. By 1669 Formby was said to have ‘100 papists’. Richard Formby and his wife Anne and Thomas Formby and his wife were amongst recusants at Formby in 1671.3 In 1679 Catherine Formby, Margery (widow), Margery (widow), Richard, Richard (gent.), Robert, Thomas and Henry Formby occur as recusants in the township.4 In 1705 ‘The Inhabitants [of Formby] whereof are mostly Fishermen and illiterate Rusticks’ included 180 papists, among them Mrs Formby, senior; James and John Formby; Margery; James, junior; Thomas, John, Thomas, Lawrence, Lawrence, Henry and their wives; and Cuthbert Formby; ‘all tenants of Lord Molyneux’.5 Thomas Formby (?1718–1809) Thomas Formby, father of Anne, was perhaps the Thomas, son of Henry Formby baptised at Formby on 2 November 1718.

The Harkirk, Little Crosby'11 In
THE HARKIRK, LITTLE CROSBY' 11 N the "Crosby Records" published by the Chetham Society I in 1887 much is written both about the Harkirk Burial Ground at Little Crosby, Lancashire, which William Blundell of Crosby set aside in 1610 for the burial of Catholic recusants, and about the finding, in 1611, of a hoard of about three hundred Saxon and other coins at the burial ground. The name "Harkirk", which is thought to be derived either from the Anglo-Saxon or Norse All hara cyrice, meaning the hoary or old church, and the finding of the hoard of Saxon coins in its vicinity have given rise to a strongly held belief that when the Norsemen came to this district about A.D. 900 there was on this site a church which became known to them as the "old or grey church". In attempt to find proof of the existence of such a church Mr. J. W. Foley, Mr. N. Hurst and I carried out some excavations at the site from October 1950 to October 1951 with the permission of Mr. and Mrs. B. M. Whitlock of Crosby Hall. From the north-west corner of the present Harkirk Chapel, built in A.D. 1889, we uncovered a line of very rough large sandstone blocks ("A" on the plan), extending in a west-north-westerly direction for a distance of 12^', and then, after a gap of 7^', con tinuing for a further distance of 16'. The average depth of the 111 Further details of the Harkirk and the Harkkk coins will be found in the following works: 1.

SINCE Mr. Youd Inspected the Records of Little Crosby
II THE COMMON FIELDS OF LITTLE CROSBY BY FRANK TYRER, M.A., B.SC. INCE Mr. Youd inspected the records of Little Crosby, S three plans of the manor and two drawings of field divisions have been found among the Blundell of Crosby muniments. Two of the plans are dated 1702 and 1741; the third appears to be about 1830. The drawings show field divisions in 1741 and 1751. All of them are helpful in interpreting the history of the common fields. In the "Great Hodge Podge", a manuscript now at Crosby Hall, there is the following list of buttlands in Little Crosby Field. It was written in 1623 by William Blundell the Recusant, but was copied from a list written by his father, Richard Blundell, who died 19 March 1591. William put in brackets the names of the tenants in possession in 1623.
