This is the site of the former Wallasey Brick and Land Company. Also the site of a riot with the workers pitched against the community in a battle over a right of way across land the company owned. Prior to the building of the Prom, company land reached down to the waters edge, but this was used as a walkway by the public for over 20 years previously.
