Fort Perch Rock, New Brighton

Well worth a visit if you are in New Brighton. This Fort is home to an interesting collection of aviation and maritime displays. We really enjoyed the way that the exhibits focus on the history of the surrounding area, including old wartime photographs, and remnants from World War II planes with details of where they were found.

Fort Perch Rock and Museum

Situated on the Wirral Peninsula, Fort Perch Rock was built as a coastal defence battery during the Napoleonic period to protect the Port of Liverpool. Today, in private ownership, this Grade II listed building houses a fabulous museum. Inside lies a real cornucopia of exhibits ranging from World War II aviation to naval history displays of the doomed submarine HMS/M Thetis, the Lusitania and the Titanic. Even Beatles and Elvis Presley memorabilia is on show inside this unusual fortress in the Mersey Estuary!
