  • Reliques of the Anglo-Saxon Churches of St. Bridget and St. Hildeburga, West Kirby, Cheshire
    RELIQUES OF THE ANGLO-SAXON CHURCHES OF ST. BRIDGET AND ST. HILDEBURGA, WEST KIRKBY, CHESHIRE. By Henry Ecroyd Smith. (BEAD IST DEOBMBEB, 1870.) THE Parish of West Kirkby (now West Kirby), lying 18 miles N.W. of Chester city, is one of the most important in the hundred of Wirral, and occupies the whole of its north­ western angle. Dr. Ormerod describes its first quarter as comprising the townships of West Kirkby and Newton-cum- Larton, with that of Grange, Great Caldey or Caldey Grange ; second, the townships of Frankby and Greasby ; third, those of Great and Little Meols, with Hoose ; fourth, the township of Little Caldey.* Originally Kirklye, or, settlement at the Church, it became " West Kirkby," to distinguish it from "Kirkby-in-Walley," at the opposite corner of the peninsula of Wirral, now com­ monly known as Wallasey. Each of these extensive parishes possessed two Churches, those of Wallasey lying the one in Kirkby-in-Walley, the other on the Leasowes and near the sea, which ultimately destroyed it and engulphed the site together with that of its burial-ground. For further informa­ tion on this head, Bishop Gastrell's " Notitia," Dr. Ormerod's " History of the County,"\ and Lyson's " Cheshire,"% may be consulted. Gastrell's Notitia. The last now simply bears the name of Caldy. t II, 360. Heading of Moretou. { Page 807. 14 The Churches of West Kirkby were situate, the parish Church at the town proper, the other, a Chapel of Ease, upon Saint Hildeburgh's Eye, i.e., the island of St. Hildeburga, which had become insulated through the same potent influence which had wrecked the Chapel, as Bishop Gastrell calls it, upon the Leasowe shore.

  • A Short History of Oxton 1800-1900 by Ray Johnson A
    A SHORT HISTORY OF OXTON 1800-1900 BY RAY JOHNSON A Short Diversion The modern town of Birkenhead stands upon what was once the wooded headland jutting out into the River Mersey. The name Birkenhead is probably descriptive of the ancient place in that it is most likely meaning is the "headland of birch trees". Great areas of the Wirral were once heavily forested and almost its entire Mersey shoreline must then have looked something like the scene we can still see today in the area of Eastham Ferry. Here great trees sweep down to the River Mersey and balance themselves at the very edge of rocky banks. The wooded headland that is now Birkenhead would once have been just like that. The headland must have seemed like a finger of land pointing out into the River Mersey towards the Liverpool bank, for there was, on the other side of it, a large natural pool. On the south side, the Tranmere Pool ran inland for almost a mile and it is believed that this place was the Somreford (ie Some Ford) referred to in the Domesday Book, since it is known that it was possible to cross the Pool at time of lower summer tides, by stepping on stepping stones. It is also known that the stepping stones were still in use in 1790 when an embankment was built to replace them and to carry the new Chester Road across the pool. To the north of the headland lay the Wallasey Pool - 1 mile wide at its mouth and stretching so far inland that it almost cut across the Wirral completely.

Recent Dock Extensions at Liverpool, with a General Description of the MerseyDock Estate,the Port of Liverpool,and the RiverMersey.” By GEORGEFOSBERY LYSTER, M. Inst. C.E. THEspecial characteristics of theRiver Mersey, theimportant positionwhich Liverpool occupies among theleading trading centres of the world, and the rapid development of its commerce are, each and all, so interesting to engineers, that in submitting a Paper descriptive of the most recent dock extensions carried out in the port, the Author has been induced to touch upon each of these points, as a fitting preamble to the more formal and precise description of the special works which form the leading features of the Paper. Few, if any, localities, inthis country at all events, are so favourably situatedfor the construction of a comprehensive system of docks as that of Liverpool, not onlyby reason of its geographical position on the seaboard of the country, with its unrivalled water frontage, but also on account of its proximity to the great manu- faeturing districts, as well as to the coal and mineral fields of the North of England and Wales, with which it is linked by railways and canals, which aresuch important factors in thedevelopment and maintenance of successful trading.

  • Shipping Safety Within the Port of Liverpool Adrian Jarvis
    Safe Home in Port? Shipping Safety within the Port of Liverpool Adrian Jarvis Introduction: Sources and Methods The issue of safety at sea has long exercised the minds of those who were concerned by what they perceived as irresponsible shipowners who sent their men to sea in dangerous vessels or with dangerous cargoes. Samuel Plimsoll is just the most famous among many who sought to bring to the shipping industry the sort of controls which already existed in many shore-based industries, and a number of Parliamentary enquiries investigated these questions in the nineteenth century.' Maritime historians have taken a good deal of interest in the answers, at both scholarly and more popular levels. Further down the scale comes the literature of spectacular shipwrecks, the worst examples of which are not merely voyeuristic or ghoulish but positively necrophiliac. What author of third-rate novels could improve on the real-life storyline of the Titanic? It raised issues of class and gender, of social, financial and technological hubris, and of heroism and neglect.' The common perception is that such tragic events invariably unfolded either in mid- ocean or on storm-battered rocky shores and in terms of bulk fatalities that perception is obviously correct. Its corollary, that one is safe in po rt, is not merely widely accepted but has extended to the use of the po rt as a metaphor for Heaven, with Jesus as celestial pilot and the Holy Trinity as the po rt authority.' This paper makes a rapid survey of the records of the Mersey Docks & Harbour Board (MD&HB), which shows that there obviously were accidents to ships when they were supposedly safe in po rt, that such accidents were numerous and that some of them were serious.

  • Seacombe (Poulton Road) Action Plan
    SEACOMBE (POULTON ROAD) ACTION PLAN This Action Plan is a comprehensive strategy for potential future development and change within the Seacombe (Poulton Road) Local Centre area. The Action Plan builds on the Wirral Town, District and Local Centres Study and Delivery Framework 2011 (“2011 Town Centre Study”) which is a broader strategy for the regeneration and growth of the Borough 23 local, district and town centres outside Birkenhead. This in turn updated the Wirral Strategy for Town Centres, Retail and Commercial Leisure produced for the Council by Roger Tym & Partners (“the RTP report”) in 2009. Detailed analysis and consultation work was undertaken in producing the 2011 Town Centre Study, including wider consultation at a strategic level (Core Strategy) and more focused consultation with key stakeholders and traders. The findings and conclusions of this work form the basis of the Seacombe Action Plan . In producing the Seacombe Action Plan, further consultation work has been undertaken. We have engaged with key stakeholders and traders, providing the opportunity for their input into the plan. The consultation responses and feedback have therefore been captured within the proposed Action Plan and have informed the key issues identified. The Seacombe Action Plan provides a more detailed framework for shaping the regeneration of the centre, setting out issues, objectives and potential interventions in respect of regeneration, planning, design, sustainability and transport. It articulates a shared vision for the enhancement of Seacombe as a local centre. Its use is therefore neither led nor limited to council officers and it should be utilised by traders, community groups and any one else with an interest in their town centre.

  • The Port of Liverpool and the Shipowners, Cl910-38 Adrian Jarvis
    The Port of Liverpool and the Shipowners, cl910-38 Adrian Jarvis Cet article examine l'évolution de la relation entre le Mersey Docks & Harbour Board et ses principaux clients; il fait voir qu 'avant la Grande Guerre, ces derniers pouvaient forcer le Conseil à faire d'importants investissements aux rendements douteux. Après la Guerre, le Conseil modifia ses politiques au profit de clients plus modestes, depuis longtemps démunis. Il chercha de plus à faire d'importantes économies ainsi qu'à mettre en œuvre certaines mesures de modernisation à travers le port. Les causes proposées de ce virage résident dans un changement d'image, de statut et de vigueur du marché de l'industrie du transport, particulièrement face aux propriétaires des navires les plus prestigieux, dont provenaient les plus coûteuses demandes relatives aux infrastructures. This paper sets out to investigate the rights and wrongs of the poor relationship which existed between major (and some minor) shipping companies and the Mersey Docks & Harbour Board. Since the Board had been established by statute in 1857 to allow the port to be run by representatives of the port users for the general benefit of those users, something had clearly gone badly wrong by about 1900 to produce the situation recounted in an earlier paper.1 Major shipping lines were fomenting wasteful competition between port authorities resulting in enormous and uneconomic investment in port facilities over the industry as a whole. In Liverpool (as elsewhere) this was particularly harmful in that investment decisions

NEWS, NOTES AND QUERIES ------------------------------------------------------------------ Vo 1. VI • No • l . February, 1956 --------------------------------~--------------------------------- THE DECErvlBER MEETING The One Hundredth Meeting of the Society was held on Wednesday, 7th December in the Hornby Library, Liverpool, which was placed at our disposal through the kindness of Doctor George Chandler, M. A. , the City Librarian, with the consent of the Li brar­ ies and Reading Rooms SUb-Committee of the Liverpool City Council. The meeting was attended by about 80 members and their friends and the guest speaker was Mr.Frank G.G.Carr, C.B.E., M.A., LL.B., Director of the National Maritime Museum, Greenwich. The main theme of Mr.Carr's talk, for he modestly dis­ claimed the title "address", concerned the achievements of the Society for Nautical Research, of which he is a council member, and the necessity for research on local Mersey craft, which he considers to have been neglected in this respect. Mr.Carr has an enthusiasm for his own work which is reflected in his public speaking and a capacity for passing this on to his audiences. He reminded us that the Society for Nautical Research was founded as long ago as 1910 and that the late Sir Geoffrey Callender was its first Secretary. Of the Society's works the best known are its primary responsibility for the restoration of H.M.S."Victory" and assistance in the estab­ lishment of the National Maritime Museum which was opened in 1937, largely as the result of the generosity of Sir James Caird who helped the venture in various ways to the extent of one and a quarter million pounds.

  • Notes on the Ancient Parish of Bidston
    NOTES ON THE ANCIENT PARISH OF BIDSTON. By Win. Fcrgusson Irvmc. Read Qth March, 1893. 1 iRPOOL I PUBLIC« lUBRARY. HPHE Ancient Parish of Bidston comprised the JL townships of Bidston, Moreton, Saughall- Massie, and Claughton. It was hounded, roughly speaking, by a line drawn from where Christ Church, Claughton, now stands to the Halfpenny Bridge, over the Great Float; from thence, through Leasowe Eighthouse to Great Meols Station on the Hoylake Eine, and back to Christ Church; enclosing in all about 4400 acres. Bidston township included the hamlets of Ford and Flaybrick ; Moreton, those of Pastureside and Eingham (or Eingholme) ; Saughall, that of the Carrhouses ; and Claughton, Grange and Woolton. The population in 1801, that is, before any extension from Eiverpool had taken place, was 574. The names of the lour townships appear to be of English origin, though the Norse invaders of the ninth century have left manifest traces of their presence in many of the field-names, as well as in one or two of the hamlets. 34 Notes on the SAUGHALL, the Hall of the Willows; from scalh, a willow, and heal, a stone house. 1 MORETON, the village on the lake ; from mere, a lake, and ton, an enclosure. CLAUGHTON, probably the clay town ; from clacg, clay, and ton, an enclosure. BIDSTON. There has been considerable debate as to the meaning of this name. Father Dallow, in a paper which he recently read before the Chester Archaeological Society,2 suggests that the monu­ mental stone, bearing a Runic inscription, found in 1887 at Upton, is responsible for the origin of the name.

  • Map of Civil War Heritage Sites
    Wirral receives its American Civil War Designation American Civil War Heritage Sites Below is a list of some of the sites that are responsible for the designation as a Civil War Heritage Site by the Civil War Preservation Trust. Wirral Sites: 1 Birkenhead Town Hall (now the Wirral Museum) - Hosting an American Civil War exhibition, with an original model of the Alabama, and a Samuel Walters painting of the Alabama and othe artefacts. 2 John Laird MP - Town House and Statue in Hamilton Square. John Laird’s company built the Confederate Raider Alabama in 1862. 3 No.4 Dock at the Apprentice Training Centre at Monks Ferry. After the Keel of the Alabama was laid on a slip in the John Laird’s shipyard it was fitted out in the No.4 dock.This is best viewed from St Mary’s Church Tower at the Priory (which is the oldest building in Merseyside). Close by in St Mary’s churchyard is John Laird’s grave. 4 Manor House (St Margaret’s) Mersey Lane, Rock Ferry. Home of Stephen Watson, cotton merchant, mentioned in the book ‘Confederate Secret Agent’ by Edward Anderson. Stephen’s wife was an American from North Carolina and a Southern sympathiser. 5 Great Float/Uveco Building, it was alongside this building that the CSS Shenandoah was moored after she surrendered to the British government and prior to being sold. Also moored here was the CSS Sumter. 6 Canning Street - Reported by Union Private Detective William Passmore, 25th July 1862, who met the sailors, thirty in number walking along Canning Street playing ‘Dixie’ on a comopean, fife and concertina, they took the 4.30 ferry to Liverpool.
