The Wirral is a peninsula in North West England, bounded by the Irish Sea to the west and the River Mersey to the east. It is part of the metropolitan county of Merseyside and is administered by the Wirral Metropolitan Borough Council. The Wirral is approximately 15 miles long and 12 miles wide at its widest point, with an area of approximately 62 square miles. It is home to over 350,000 people.

The Wirral is known for its beautiful scenery, including the beaches of West Kirby and Hoylake, the North Wirral coastal park, and the RSPB nature reserve at Burton Mere Sands. It is also home to several historical sites, including the ruins of Birkenhead Priory, the Ironbridge Memorial, and the Port Sunlight Garden Village.

The Wirral is connected to Liverpool and the rest of Merseyside by the Mersey Ferries, the Queensway Tunnel, and the Kingsway Tunnel. It is also served by the Merseyrail commuter train network and several bus routes.
