MERSEYSIDE
was formed in in 1974 from what was South West Lancashire.
Merseyside region is North and South Liverpool, Sefton to the North
of Liverpool, Knowsley and St Helens to the East and the Wirral to
the West. In August 2003 a large debate happened, should
Merseyside be dropped and a new name for the region be given, like
Greater Liverpool. It now has an approximate population
of 1,403,381 and 610,000 households. It has some of the
richest wildlife on and off its coastline as well as the highest
number of listed buildings outside of London.
In 2008 Liverpool, the hart of Merseyside, became European Capital
Of Culture. For more about the regions history visit our
