About

Liscard sits at the heart of Wallasey and functions as the borough’s civic and shopping centre. The red-brick Wallasey Town Hall on Brighton Street, with its clock tower and the cenotaph in front, anchors a street pattern of short terraces and mid-20th-century precincts. The main shopping streets run off the town hall, lined with a mix of local traders and national retailers, council offices and small professional practices. A small civic square and municipal buildings give the area a clear administrative character rather than a purely residential one.

Transport links are concentrated along Liscard Road and Brighton Street, with frequent Merseyrail services on the Wirral Line at the nearby station and a network of bus routes serving the suburb. Residential streets behind the shopping core are a mix of Victorian terraces and later housing, with local primary schools and community centres serving residents. Public events are often centred on the town hall forecourt, and the town hall clock remains a local reference point for timetables and gatherings.
