About Liverpool Central Station

Liverpool Central is a subterranean transport hub in the city of Liverpool in northwest England. The underground station is operated by Merseyrail and first opened for service in 1892. Originally dark, dismal and only accessible by stairs, Liverpool Central has undergone a series of renovations over the years to bring it up to date and to be capable of coping with the ever-increasing numbers of commuters using the station. The bright, modern station has three different levels with various platforms and caters on average to over sixteen million passengers every year. Access to the platforms for the Northern and Wirral Lines is now by elevator or escalator. 

The main entrance to Liverpool Central is on Ranelagh Street and fronted by a shopping center through which there is direct access to the station hall and ticket offices. All other facilities at Liverpool Central are located on the ground floor. These include cash machines, automatic ticket machines, vending machines for cold drinks and snacks, and public bathrooms with a baby changing room. The arrival and departure of the different train services are displayed on digital screens throughout the concourse and are similar to what you'd see in an airport.

Things to do near Liverpool Central Station

While the first thing that comes to mind when the name Liverpool is mentioned might be football, there's a lot more to this city than a famous soccer team. Liverpool has been a major port on the west coast of Great Britain since the early 1800s, has a historic center that's a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and has produced more famous musicians and writers than just about any other city in the country.

Attractions and activities near Liverpool Central Station

Speke: Speke is a town south of Liverpool and a place you should visit if you want to see how the British other half lived. On the outskirts of the town is a country estate managed by the National Trust that contains a magnificent piece of Tudor architecture. Speke Hall has a four-hundred-year history, priests hiding holes in its walls, and is part legacy of the wealth created for some from the slave-trading of the era.

Thurstaston: Cross over the Mersey River, head to the village of Thurstaston and you'll discover one of the best beaches in north-west England. Thurstaston sits on a strip of land known as the Wirral Peninsula and is a quaint place with an old church, traditional tea rooms, and Thurstaston Beach. The broad stretch of sand and shingle is part of the Dee River estuary and a conservation area. Sheltered from the elements by steep cliffs, it's a great spot to have a picnic, a walk by the riverside, or just chill out on the sand.

Warrington: Warrington is a town east of Liverpool which is well worth a visit. You don't need to have sailing experience to jump aboard a canal boat there and navigate the Bridgewater Canal. It's a tranquil way of seeing the area, but if you're not keen on boats then there are plenty of walking and cycling paths that follow the same route. In Warrington, you can browse around the Museum and Art Gallery, and then take a look at the stained glass windows in Daresbury Church which commemorate the stories of Lewis Carroll. Outside the town is the Gulliver's World Theme Park which is great for adults as well as kids or for something a little less exciting, pop over to the Walton Hall and Gardens where there's a mini zoo.
