What a great View! Well worth the slog up the hill!

This memorial, erected in a prominent location, towers high above the landscape of Frodsham Hill, about two kilometers from the banks of the Mersey, which flows past Liverpool before reaching its estuary. Despite its beautiful location and fantastic views (weather permitting), it has a serious significance: it commemorates the many victims of war and tyranny claimed by the two terrible world wars in the first half of the last century. Thus, each of these WAR MEMORIALS, which hikers encounter time and again in so many places, has a message that remains relevant today: to remember the need to preserve peace!

A very nicely designed long-distance cycle path

Beautiful view of the Gateway Bridge

"Also known as Whitby Lighthouse, Ellesmere Port Lighthouse was built at Whitby Docks in 1880. William Jessop built a canal from the River Mersey at Netherpool to Ellesmere and Chester which opened in 1795. Originally the Ellesmere Canal, the plan was to carry boats between the River Mersey and River Severn, creating a link with the Port of Liverpool. However the Ellesmere Canal was never fully completed, but parts of it formed the Shropshire Union Canal. In 1796 Thomas Telford was responsible for the construction of Whitby Docks at the junction with the River Mersey.  This formed the terminus of the canal from Ellesmere in Shropshire.  From here, goods were transferred from trains and canal boats onto seagoing vessels.  The docks at Whitby contained docks, warehouses, a blacksmiths forge, stables and workers’ houses.  It remained in operation until the 1950s. Ellesmere Port grew up around Dock Street, which now forms part of the National Waterways Museum.  The village of Whitby merged with other local villages to form what is now Ellesmere Port. Ellesmere Port Lighthouse was built at the entrance to Whitby Docks and was completed in 1880." Source: https://lighthouseaccommodation.co.uk/listings/ellesmere-port-lighthouse/

"The site of the park was once within the boundaries of the 2,300-acre Royal Deer Park of Toxteth which became "disparked" in 1591. The land eventually came under the Earl of Sefton's control. In 1867 the Council purchased 375 acres of land of the park's development for £250,000 from the Earl of Sefton. Sefton Park is one of the largest in the "ribbon of Parks" originally envisaged in 1850s by the Liverpool Improvement Committee and which came eventually to include Newsham and Stanley Parks. A European competition was launched to design a grand park. 29 entries were received and the competition was won by a French landscape architect Édouard André with work on the design also undertaken by Liverpool architect Lewis Hornblower. The park was opened on 20 May 1872 by Prince Arthur who dedicated it "for the health and enjoyment of the townspeople".
