Denhall quay 1791. Coal out and slate and limestone in.

            Although you might not think so from the look of the area today, the peaceful marsh-side area at the bottom of Marshlands Roads, near The Harp public house, was once the largest industrial site in the region. This was where the region’s Industrial Revolution started. There were coal mines, as well as other industrial activities, with over 300 people employed in the 1920s. The first steam engine anywhere in Wirral and west Cheshire was sited here during the early Industrial Revolution and later the great engineer, George Stephenson, visited the site. The mine workings stretched out under the river...a dangerous business!!
