Dibbinsdale is a local nature reserve and SSSI - see http://www.wirral.gov.uk/er/diblnr.htm The water in the foreground is the River Dibbin and the tunnel to the left appears to be an abandoned canal. On top of the tunnels is a railway embankment. Further west is ancient woodland. You can walk through the left hand tunnel, leading to a totally different environment. The arrangement of the paths gives you the impression that the reserve is much bigger than it really is.
