A petition to stop new homes being built on one of New Brighton's most beloved green spaces gained more than 300 signatures - despite the plans never existing.
A petition calling on the people of New Brighton to 'stop the plans to build a housing estate on the Tower Grounds' was posted to non-profit petition website Change.org on Friday (September 2). It read: "The Tower Grounds is the heart of the New Brighton community, let’s stop Wirral Council’s plans to build a housing estate on it, the more signatures we can get the better chance we have of keeping our beloved Tower Grounds."
But a spokesman for Wirral Council confirmed it has not received any planning applications proposing building on the 122-year-old site.
