Guy Fawkes Night Special Ghost Walk in New Brighton - Ghosts, Witches & Gunpowder of Liscard Vale

Guy Fawkes Night Special Ghost Walk -Wednesday 5th November 7pm till 8.30pm Tour

Max 12 People - Ticket Only Event

Rising from the river near Liscard in Wallasey stands Magazine Village - a community which, before gunpowder had bestowed upon it an air of respectability, was known and denounced as 'Hell's Brow'.

Before the eighteenth century the Brow was isolated from the other areas of Wallasey by a treacherous mere, a wind-swept moor, and by Bidston Moss. For many years the only access to the village was by way of the shore. Due to its isolation the area attracted wreckers and smugglers. Often posing as simple boatmen and hard-working fishermen they lived in the Brow's squalid muddle of hovels. However, the vagaries of passing time transformed the little hovels into some of the most delightful and sought after cottages in Wallasey.

Get Ready for an Evening filled with Chilling Tales of Witchcraft, Maritime Folklore and Ghostly Tales. Explore the Seaside to hear of Maudsley the Lighthouse Keeper and the Lantern Man of Ye Black Rock. Visit The Hanging Tree of Liscard Vale and learn the Legends of the Liscard Witches. Finishing at a 19th Century inn where you will learn of the Sea Captain’s Curse and the Legend of the One Legged Diver. We offer an evening of History and Mystery to Capture the Imagination and inspire your minds.
