Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. A guide to places to visit, history and wildlife along the Liverpool, Wirral and Cheshire shores of the Mersey EstuaryStretching for around thirty miles to the coast, the Mersey Estuary is perhaps best known for Liverpools spectacular waterfront and the Mersey Ferry. But there are many hidden ge…ms along its shores, including waterside parks, sandy beaches and poignant reminders of the days of steamships and sail.The Mersey Estuary: A Travel Guide provides suggestions for places to visit around the estuary from its upper reaches in Warrington to Liverpool, Wirral and the coast at New Brighton and Formby Point. Other destinations include Birkenhead, Ellesmere Port, Port Sunlight, Runcorn and Widnes. Suggested places to visit in Liverpool include the Three Graces, Royal Albert Dock, Liverpool Cathedral, the Museum of Liverpool and the Maritime Museum.In addition to the main tourist attractions, readers will discover some less well-known sights, including lighthouses, outdoor art, medieval buildings, and a transporter bridge, along with ideas for boat trips around the estuarys docks and canals and places for a birds eye view of Liverpool and beyond.There are also maps and route descriptions for fifteen suggested walks and cycle routes around the estuary, ranging from a couple of hours to a full day trip. Highlights include walks in Liverpool, New Brighton, Runcorn, Warrington and Widnes and cycle rides that take in Port Sunlight, Warringtons waterways and the Another Place statues at Crosby Beach.For those interested in a more in-depth look at the estuary, the second part of the book has chapters on maritime connections, wildlife and rivers and tides.Maritime history themes include the development of the Port of Liverpool, the Mersey ferries and modern-day shipping and navigation. Further inland, topics include efforts to create a shipping route to Warrington and Manchester starting with the Mersey and Irwell Navigation and culminating in the Manchester Ship Canal. Wirrals maritime history is discussed too, including the development of Port Sunlight and Birkenhead Docks.River and tidal themes include an introduction to the key role that scientists from Liverpool and Bidston Observatory played in the developing the science of tidal prediction, and how the estuary has been cleaned up in recent decades so that even salmon have returned. Other wildlife topics include the many nature reserves around the estuary and the types of habitat and wildlife they shelter. There are also tips on seeing seals, red squirrels, wading birds and the Merseys little-known tidal bore.With stunning colour photographs, The Mersey Estuary: A Travel Guide is a must-read for travellers to the area and local residents alike. Stretching for around thirty miles to the coast, the Mersey Estuary is perhaps best known for Liverpools spectacular waterfront and the Mersey Ferry. But there are many other hidden gems along its shores. The Mersey Estuary: A Travel Guide provides suggestions for places to visit along the estuary. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
