This monument, a beautifully crafted statue of a great man, takes the viewer back to the late 16th and early 17th centuries. It is dedicated to "Childe of Hale" (which is also the name of this highlight), but his real name was John Middleton.

Only past it on a ride. I have not seen many good reviews about this place. I think the Childe of Hale, which is just around the corner, is much better.

"John Middleton (1578–1623) was an English giant who was born in the village of Hale and is commonly known as the Childe of Hale. He was allegedly 9 feet 3 inches (2.82 m) tall, and legend tells that he slept with his feet out of the window of his small house, and tales credit him with great strength. He was employed as a bodyguard by the sheriff of Lancashire." Source: Wikipedia

Holy Family RC Church is situated on Hall Lane and is a building of over 100 years old. The Church was funded and built by the Stapleton-Bretherton family of Rainhill. It is dedicated to the memory of Frederick Stapleton-Bretherton, his wife the Honourable Isabella Stapleton-Bretherton and two of their children, Mary Stapleton-Bretherton (Sister of Charity) and 2nd Lieutenant Robert Charles Lucius Stapleton-Bretherton who died in the South African War. The two children are commemorated in two stained glass windows in the south transept. The Church was opened on 15th August, 1910. It was built using sandstone sourced from Mr Stapleton-Bretherton’s quarry in Rainhill. The architect was Mr Gilbertson of Liverpool and the builder was Mr Mercer of Widnes.

Great spot and a good shortcut that comes out near Mersey Pub. There is a small lake that runs in the centre of the park and always has plenty of birds and wildlife.

Worth a stop on the beach it's only small you would have to climb down. But well worth for pictures.
