Forums Forums Wirral History : Chasing the Past Wirral Now and Then Egremont Seabank Road Wallasey

Second pair are of Egremont, Seabank Road showing the entrance to the Mariner's Park. Mariner's Park was started in 1880 by William Cliff in memory of his daughter and opened in 1882 with just two cottage homes - extending to near 90 units today

Is there anything that's still the same?

noticed the other day someone had modified the wall opposite manor road (with a car or sumfin)

looool

The wall has always been rearranged by cars ever since i was a kid.Its even had the odd bus try to park in there

It's probably because the road is quite a "fast" one (not legally) and the bends can take people by surprise, especially in the wet when doing excessive speed.

Its usually when they come down the last steep bit of manor road

Ah I see

maybe they should extend manor road problem solved

Hope so Matt or you will hit the wall

I used to play in the old mariners home when it was derelict before they pulled it down.It was a well creepy place and the old tower was full of bats.It would of made an excellent U/E location

Lmao!!

Of course, NOW if they found it was full of bats then they would slap a preservation order on the place. The bat population is declining rapidly and fair enough they do need preserving. I bet there are LOADS in that big old house next door
