About

Woodhey is a residential neighbourhood located in the Bebington area of the Wirral Peninsula. It is characterised by quiet, tree-lined streets and a mix of mid-20th century housing, primarily semi-detached and detached homes. The area is largely residential, with local amenities concentrated along nearby main roads rather than within Woodhey itself. It offers a settled, suburban atmosphere with good access to surrounding green spaces and transport links into Liverpool and Chester.

The area is situated close to the expansive grounds of Clatterbridge Hospital and the older estate of Poulton Lancelyn. A notable local feature is the presence of the Woodhey Drive Allotments, providing a community gardening space within the neighbourhood. Residents benefit from proximity to schools, sports facilities at the Oval leisure centre, and the open countryside of Wirral's interior, contributing to a practical and family-oriented environment.
