About

Blundellsands is a residential area on the Merseyside coast, characterised by its wide, tree-lined avenues and large Victorian and Edwardian houses. The layout follows a formal grid pattern, creating a settled and orderly streetscape. It sits directly beside the expansive sands of the Crosby and Blundellsands coastline.

A notable feature is the area's proximity to the permanent art installation 'Another Place' by Antony Gormley, with its figures looking out across the tidal range. The local landscape is defined by coastal golf courses and the Victorian-era Cambridge Road railway station, which provides a direct link to Liverpool.
