About

Liscard is a residential ward situated on the northern coast of the Wirral Peninsula. The area centres around a traditional high street, which serves as the main commercial hub for local shopping needs. Housing is primarily composed of Victorian and Edwardian terraces, alongside more modern developments and some social housing estates.

A prominent local landmark is the former Liscard Town Hall, a large Victorian building that now functions as a community centre. The area includes several parks and green spaces, such as Central Park. Direct access to the waterfront is provided via the Kings Parade promenade, a concrete walkway that stretches along the sea wall, popular for dog walking and cycling.
