New Ferry is
situated on the A41, the main road between Birkenhead and London
prior to the introduction of motorways, and immediately adjacent
to the village of Port Sunlight. At the centre of the town is
the Toll Bar area, a name originating from when New Chester Road
used to be a toll road. The re-routing of the A41 road onto the
New Ferry
By-pass, built in the 1970s, has resulted in a decline in
through-traffic in the town centre.
The monthly Wirral Farmers' Market held in
New Ferry's
Village Hall (between Longfellow Drive & Grove Street) has been
voted Britain's Best Farmers' Market at the prestigious BBC Food
& Farming Awards. The market is entirely volunteer run, its
profits being used to fund local community groups and good
causes. In addition to the market, the town also boasts a world
class butchers, Edge's, with the same family trading in
New Ferry
since the 1850s.
Out of a thin piece of land adjoining Bebington station and
along the railway towards Birkenhead, local volunteers have in
recent years created a wildlife haven,
New Ferry
Butterfly Park. The nearest railway stations to New
Ferry are at
Bebington and Rock Ferry, on the Wirral Line of the Merseyrail
network. |
