A Fresh Perspective on Travel Every Day
The attractions in Liverpool and the metropolitan county of Merseyside may not immediately captivate the onlooker; however, a deeper exploration reveals an array of charms that will undoubtedly enchant you.
Situated in Merseyside, St Helens is a significant town comprising various local townships that merged during the Industrial Revolution.
At the turn of the 19th century, Birkenhead was a modest village situated on the Wirral bank of the Mersey, sufficiently distanced from Liverpool’s industrial activities by the river. However, rapid developments occurred in the following decades when shipbuilder William Laird established his operations and developed the grand Hamilton Square. Subsequently, Birkenhead Park, recognized as the first publicly funded park globally, emerged, complementing Hamilton Square with its profusion of listed buildings.
