About

About Merseyside

Merseyside is a ceremonial and metropolitan county in North West England. It borders Lancashire to the north, Greater Manchester to the east, Cheshire to the south, the Welsh county of Flintshire across the Dee Estuary to the southwest, and the Irish Sea to the west.

Merseyside is one of the metropolitan counties of England, created in 1974. Before that, Wirral was wholly within Cheshire and the area north and east of the Mersey was part of Lancashire.

Comfortable means average daytime high between 18 °C and 29 °C and under 80 mm of rain in the month. Averages for 1991–2020 over the surrounding area, a grid square about 50 km across, so a coast or a nearby mountain can make the town itself warmer or cooler.

Getting there

Getting to Merseyside: airports and arrival

The nearest airport with scheduled flights is Liverpool John Lennon Airport (LPL), about 14 km from the city centre in a straight line; Manchester Airport (MAN, 48 km) and Leeds Bradford Airport (LBA, 101 km) are also within reach.

Getting around

Motorists should be aware that the two road tunnels, from Birkenhead and Wallasey to Liverpool, both have a toll for use. The toll booths are all situated on the Wirral side of the river. Frequent and reliable Merseyrail services operate between many of Merseyside's stations. There is also an extensive bus network. Saveaway tickets are valid on all public transport in Merseyside. These can be purchased at any staffed railway or bus stations in Merseyside. An "all areas" ticket is best, particularly if intending to also travel to Chester and Ellesmere Port.
