More About Birkenhead

Birkenhead is on the west bank of the River Mersey, known as the Wirral, and has spectacular views of the skyline of Liverpool just across the river.

The was mainly agricultural until the introduction of the steam-powered Mersey Ferry in 1820 after which Birkenhead grew rapidly to became an important ship building centre and port.

The Twelve Quays ferry terminal allows a direct freight and passenger service to Dublin, Republic of Ireland and Belfast, Northern Ireland.

The Mersey Ferry at Woodside runs a passenger service to Liverpool, as well as chartered cruising.During winter months, the Isle of Man Steam Packet Company operates a service from Birkenhead to Douglas using the MS Ben-my-Chree. Due to weather conditions, this service temporarily replaces the route that normally operates from the Liverpool landing stage using fast craft.

Birkenhead was the first town in Europe to have a street tramway (opened in 1860) and visitors can still ride on Birkenhead Tramway to see the town's historic attractions.

The Wirral Museum, located in the handsome Hamilton Square, includes the story of the famous Cammell Laird shipyard.

The Birkenhead Heritage Trail includes the Shore Road Pumping Station, where the restored 'Giant Grasshopper' steam pump can be seen in action. These huge pumps were used to keep water out of the Mersey Rail Tunnel - the first underwater rail tunnel in Europe.

Other tourist attractions in the town are the renovated Pacific Road Art and Exhibition Centre and Birkenhead Priory, dating from 1150, the oldest building in Merseyside. Benedictine monks from the priory operated the first ferry across the River Mersey.

The beautiful Birkenhead Park was created in 1847 by Sir Joseph Paxton (designer of the Crystal Palace) and was Britain's first publicly funded park, over 2,000 acres of woods, parkland, lakes and gardens.

The village of Bidston, to the north-west of Birkenhead, stands at one of the highest points on The Wirral. Bidston Hill has 100 acres of woodland and heathland, with old crofter's cottages scattered about its slopes and a windmill at its highest point. Tam O'Shanter's Urban farm, in a thatched cottage on the edge of Biston Hill, houses a small collection of farm animals.
