Birkenhead Priory, a Benedictine Monastery established 1150 is the oldest building on Merseyside. Much of the original building still remains and other parts have been sympathetically restored to their former stature. Climb the tower of St. Mary’s Church dated 1822, and experience the panoramic views of Liverpool’s waterfront, the unmatched views across Birkenhead to Oxton Ridge, Bidston and the Wirral coast.
