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. -

SI Crosby History 1 – Sixty Years of Service
Soroptimist International of Crosby 1938 –1998 The sixty years of Soroptimism in Crosby encompass a World War, a technological revolution and many great changes – not least in the position of women in society. What follows is not a comprehensive history of the club. Rather it is a series of glimpses of the past, looking back from 1998 to the activities and preoccupations of members as the club celebrated its major anniversary, then more fully at the events of the past decade. Much of the information about the club’s community service has been drawn from histories prepared in 1968, 1978 and 1988. Hilda Garner, April 1998 1 1938 - Early days and the years of war Soroptimism came to Crosby in May 1938, as the dark clouds of conflict gathered over Europe. Six members of the Soroptimist club of Liverpool came to the Sundene Hotel and explained how Soroptimist Clubs were organised. The first officers were elected and the Soroptimist Club of Waterloo-with-Seaforth received its charter from the Federation President, Miss E. Hawes, in the presence of Miss M.F. Adams, President of the Divisional Union (now the Region) and Miss H. Critchley, the DU Secretary. The Crosby club began with 26 active members. Its first president was the Headmistress of Merchant Taylors’ School for Girls, Miss E. Fordham, and the link between school and club has remained strong. Mrs Margaret Davies, who was headmistress of the school for more than 25 years, is a past president and was a long-serving member of the club into the 1990s. -

The Wirral Carrs and Holms
The Wirral Carrs and Holms Stephen Harding University of Nottingham The Wirral peninsula in north-west England (Figure 1) was once home to a vibrant colony of Scandinavian settlers, many of whom were Norsemen expelled from Ireland. The arrival of one group, led by Ingimund in AD 902, has now been well described but there were others, including Danes (Cavill et al. 2000 & refs therein). The intensity of the settlement is borne out by the distribution of major or settlement names in Wirral, such as Arrowe, Caldy, Claughton, Gayton, Larton, Lingham, Mollington Torold, Ness, Neston, Storeton, Thingwall, Thurstaston, Tranmere, the -by names (Frankby, Greasby, Helsby, Irby, Kirkby in Wallasey, Pensby, Raby, West Kirby, Whitby and the now lost Haby, Hesby/Eskeby, Warmby, Kiln Walby, Stromby and Syllaby) and the Norse-Irish Liscard and Noctorum. Some further settlement names, such as Birkenhead, Heswall and Woodchurch, are of Anglian origin but were influenced by the incoming Norsemen. The intensity of settlement can, however, perhaps best be gauged from the minor or field names. The distinguished antiquarian, F.T. Wainwright, stated the following in 1943 (repr. Cavill et al. 2000: 98): It is known that during the early part of the tenth century there occurred a large scale Norse immigration into Wirral. How heavy was this influx is illustrated by the field-names which, even in their modern forms, preserve ample proof of the intensity of the Scandinavian settlement. Outstanding examples are brekka ‘slope, hillside’ (e.g. The Breck SJ 297917, Flaybrick SJ 293895, Wimbricks SJ 247879 and the Newton Breken SJ 238875), slakki ‘shallow valley’ or ‘hollow’ (e.g. -
Local Plan for Sefton April 2017
Local Plan for Sefton April 2017 FOREWORD TO THE SEFTON LOCAL PLAN Sefton is a diverse borough that contains towns and villages with distinct identities and communities. Sefton is also home to areas of open countryside and a coastal area that helps make Sefton an attractive location where people choose to live, work and visit. Whilst Sefton’s varied character and landscape is its strength, it also provides challenges in planning for its future growth. The Council has worked to address these during the preparation of the Sefton Local Plan. The key challenge we have faced is how we best meet our economic and social needs whilst protecting our natural and built environment, much of which is nationally and internationally protected and is highly valued by residents and visitors. The Local Plan sets out how we will meet our future housing and employment needs to 2030. Sites have been identified through a thorough and rigorous process, with an emphasis on identifying sites within the urban area as far as possible. We have also sought to meet needs as close as possible to where they are arise, taking account of the many constraints that affect where development can take place. This approach was endorsed by the Inspector who examined the Local Plan. Some of the decisions we have had to make have not been easy and getting to this stage has been long and sometimes contentious. However, the Council believes the Local Plan for Sefton provides a framework for the Borough to grow in a positive and balanced way so that everyone will have the opportunity to live a successful, active and valued life. -
