About

Neston is a market town situated on the Wirral Peninsula, bordering the Dee Estuary. Its historic core centres around the traditional High Street, which retains a mix of independent shops and local services. The town's layout reflects its history, with older streets radiating from the central crossroads. Inland, the area includes residential neighbourhoods and green spaces like the Wirral Way, a path along a former railway line that provides a direct route into the surrounding countryside.

Adjacent to Neston, Parkgate sits directly on the estuarine marshland of the Dee. Once a significant port for Ireland, its waterfront is now a quiet promenade lined with former Georgian inns. The vast, open salt marshes are a designated nature reserve, creating a stark, flat landscape that stretches to the Welsh coast. At certain high tides, the water still reaches the historic sea wall, briefly restoring the view of a harbour.
