Famous for its siege during 1645. You need to be fit to get to the top but it's a nice walk and worth the trip. A drink and meal in The Shady Oak afterwards is a good reward.

The site of Birkenhead Priory which lies next to Cammell Laird Shipyard Dock No.4 which was the birth place of the most successful battleship ever built "The Alabama". A very interesting place with lots of history attached to Liverpool. They do say if you come from Birkenhead your a true Scouser as it existed before Liverpool did.
