Birkenhead: Wirral Museum
Image: © Nigel Cox Taken: 17 Jun 2007
Situated on the south-east side of Hamilton Square, the structure was built as Birkenhead Town Hall and completed in 1887. The re-organization of local government in 1974 meant that it lost its town hall status, but it has subsequently been refurbished as the Wirral Museum. The clock tower is a prominent landmark. Mortimer Street is to the left of the building.
