The land on top of the hill used to be owned by the vyner family who used to reside in Bidston Hall.they created a private park /hunting area for their guests ,a wall was built running along park wood to create this area ,this wall was known as the penny a day wall as this is what the men building it where paid.There are numerous sets of steps and paths that run up through the wood from the hall and most of the wall is still there today running from the horse carving to the windmill thumbsup

The rods or rhododendron gardens are /where behind the houses on Hoylake road and run from there up to boundary road. by all accounts they used to be quite a sight in the summer but like many things on the wirral the have been left to virtually disappear .

If you scroll back over this topic you will see the
tonns of cement and the steel construction of the blocking
of the entrance.

There is an entrance in the Rhoddendenron Gardens but this
is back filled and welded shut.
See our pictures with the water in the corridor as that is the
steel door. But blocked by soil and i guess rubble.

If you read the topic you will see where the entrance on
Bidston Hill Is. Even though that one too has been sealed.

It will take a bit of extra effort and plant hire now
to get into any of the entrances IMO.
