A large pond on Hoseside Road in Wallasey. A small amount of grass surrounds the ponds.

Fishing pond in Hose Side Rd, a corruption of the word hoes, meaning sandhill, for this road was once a gated private road through the sandhills. Associated with a couple of local legends, this possible marl pit is popular with local anglers. In the very early days of the history of Liscard Castle when it was known as Marina Villa, a sea captain took his new bride to live there, who, on receiving news of his drowning at sea, drowned herself in a nearby small lake. This eventually became known as the 'Captain's Pit' and her spirit is said to haunt Liscard Castle to this day.

Merseyside PTE bus 195 picks up passengers for the very first journey of the first regular daytime bus service through the Kingsway Tunnel between Wallasey and Liverpool, the day the tunnel opened to normal traffic. The formation of the Passenger Transport Executive, which absorbed the bus and ferry operations of Wallasey and Birkenhead Corporations, allowed a more integrated public transport network. Previously, the only bus service through the (Queensway) tunnel had been the night service operated when no ferries ran. Service 32 ran from the former Wallasey Corporation bus garage on Seaview Road through to Liverpool Exchange Station on Tithebarn Street https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/7389262 . This is one of a series of views featuring buses in the 60s, 70s, and 80s. http://www.geograph.org.uk/search.php?i=137652761 Bus 195 is a Leyland Atlantean with Northern Counties bodywork. It had been ordered by Birkenhead Corporation but was not delivered – in January 1971 – until after the formation of the PTE. It is in the PTE's Wirral division blue and cream livery, based on the colours used by the Birkenhead and Wallasey fleets. It also carries the route branding for the new cross-river services.
