05. The Wirral
Urban and rural, undergrowth and plains,
New Brighton to West Kirby, motorway and trains.
Walking and golf, cycling and swimming.
For sports and recreation the Wirral is brimming.
A stroll to Hilbre Island or fishing from the shore.
A ticket for Prenton Park to see Tranmere score.
The dormitory of Liverpool the Wirral is known.
We’re friendly around here and you’re never alone.
Great restaurants and cinemas, theatres and bars.
Many parts of the Wirral are home to the stars.
Although a gateway to Wales and an entrance to the Pool,
The Wirral is self-contained, so no need to leave, as a rule.
A local history of pirates and centuries of monks.
A music scene that’s vibrant with still a few punks.
Commerce and industry, Camel Lairds for example.
Come to the Wirral for fun; we’ve got ample.
