  • East Wirral(Mersey Estuary)
    River Mersey near to Eastham Country Park. East Wirral (Mersey Estuary) The East Wirral route takes you from the start of the Manchester Ship Canal on the banks of the River Mersey, into the woodlands of Eastham Country Park and through the area of industrial heritage of the east coast to Seacombe. Along the route you will pass near to the historic village of Port Sunlight, through the Victorian suburb of Rock Park, past Cammell Lairds Shipyard, and along to Woodside where you can see the world’s first rail tram system. 60 From Woodside Ferry Terminal and the U-boat Story you will pass the docks, the Twelve Quays Irish Ferry Terminal and on towards Seacombe, where you will find Spaceport and the best views of the Liverpool Waterfront World Heritage Site. The River Mersey was once renowned as a polluted river but now it’s not unusual to see seals, porpoise and dolphin in the Mersey. Charter fishing boats regularly pass from the Mersey to Liverpool Bay which has become one of the best inshore cod fishing grounds in north west Europe. 61 East Wirral (Mersey Estuary) Eastham Country Park 1 Eastham Country Park Eastham Country Park holds immense value and is a long- standing, major leisure and nature conservation area. It covers some 43 hectares and it is the last remaining substantial area of undeveloped land with public access on the Wirral bank of the River Mersey between Birkenhead and Ellesmere Port. Its location gives it particular importance as a local amenity, wildlife and educational resource. The site includes approximately 26 hectares of mature mixed deciduous woodland, 8 hectares of amenity grassland, 3 hectares of new plantation woodland and 3 hectares of natural grassland and scrub.

In the House of Lords a Woolsack occupies a prominent position, heing symbolic of the former importance of wool production to our national prosperity. For the same reason a lump of Lancashire coal should find a home in our Town Hall, since the rise of Liverpool was largely due to the accessi­ bility of cheap coal behind the seaport. The Duke of Bridgewater constructed his earliest canals to bring coal cheaply to the poor of Liverpool-now it is more usual to see coal being carried up the canals away from the city into South Lancashire. One may well ask " Why ? " We are much indebted to the energetic activities of Mr. Wardle for authentic data relating to some of the earliest steamers plying on the Mersey, which has cleared up several problems of the past. It is believed that the first successful steamship to enter the river was Elizabeth which appeared in June, 1815, and I intend to deal shortly with the interesting period of marine development from that date up to 1840, when the first Cunarder Unicorn crossed the Atlantic.
