About Birkenhead

Birkenhead's history can be traced back to an ancient building, the Priory, which was founded between 1154 and 1199 and stood on a lonely headland of birch trees. The Priory has a mixture of architectural styles due to the continual rebuilding of it throughout its years of existence. The Priory has now officially been declared an Ancient Monument. After King John granted Liverpool its charter, in the early 13th Century, the monks introduced the first ferry service across the river in 1330 from the Priory.

When trips were not possible due to bad weather, passengers were accommodated in the Priory. The service was originally free, but increased demand meant that the monks could no longer afford to do this and they had to start charging a fee. The Priory was used as a garrison during the Civil War in the 17th Century and the main hall was surrendered by the Cavaliers to the Roundheads and then demolished. The stones from the buildings were used to construct other buildings and, with the exception of St Mary's Church, these have since been pulled down and lost.
