A villa estate which lies just across the road from a shopping centre is unknown to many.
Clifton Park, in the heart of Birkenhead, is a conservation area with a rich history and looks like something out of a film set. Tucked away from view, just a short distance away is the Pyramids shopping centre and town centre on Grange Road.
Walking along Clifton Road, where many of the listed buildings are situated, is like stepping into another world. Grand buildings which look like they could be set in Italy or the Elizabethan times stand form all along the road.
