Bidston Hall
Bidston Hall is an early seventeenth century house associated with William Stanley, sixth Earl of Derby, who died 1627. It was more recently occupied by Sir Robert Vyner who gave the land on Bidston Hill for the observatory. It is built of yellow sandstone, the front approach is through a square court, with a handsome gateway having a singular arch highly ornamented with the cognizances of the Derby family. In some intermediatory purchase it is said Bidston Hall was won and lost at cards, to commemorate which a summer-house was built in the form of a club, the foundations of which still remain in the picturesque grounds attached to the hall.

Church Farm, Bidston
This unusual looking farmhouse is medieval, it is situated opposite St Oswald's Church in Bidston Village. Once thought to have been a monastic building, it was built on thirteen different levels with thirteen flights of stairs, no two rooms being built on the same level, as can be seen by the position of the windows.

Stone Farm, Fender Lane, Bidston
Stone farm, formerly the Ring o' Bells Inn at the junction of School Lane with Fender Lane. The last landlord, Simon Croft, also one of the inn's best customers, did little to discourage drunken behaviour, which distressed the churchgoers and led to the inn being closed down in 1868 leaving the village with no licensed premises.
