Meols

 

 

Meols is an amalgam of two former villages "Great Meols" and "Little Meols". The latter name fell out of use in Victorian times, but the former was still in use on postal addressing and on the front destination indicators of buses from Chester, up to the 1960s, though it was not used on the railway station name boards.

Meols originated as a port some 2400 years ago. Trade with France and possibly the Mediterranean, occurred even before the Roman invasion, use continued through the medieval period. Evidence of a Viking beach market has been discovered. It is generally paired with its neighbour, the larger Hoylake, venue for The Open 2006 at the Royal Liverpool Golf Club.

Today,
Meols is mainly residential with a small yacht and fishing community on its Irish Sea shore line. The centre has a small row of shops adjacent to the Railway Station. Close by there is the Railway Inn pub, one of many Wirral Pubs.

One of The Wirral Peninsula's most well know faces is Andy McCluskey from OMD is from
Meols. Famously, to those old enough to remember OMD had a track called 'Red Frame White Light' which referred to the Public Telephone Box between the church and the Railway Inn. Hidden within the lyrics was the telephone number of the telephone box. OMD's worldwide appeal was such that fans would call the telephone number from all over the world.

 

Meols has a small number of shops and restaurant situated right outside Meols Train station. Click for larger image
