From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Birkenhead is a town and ferry port in the Metropolitan Borough of Wirral, Merseyside, England; historically, until 1974, in Cheshire, it is on the Wirral Peninsula, along the south bank of the River Mersey, opposite the city of Liverpool. At the 2011 census, it had a population of 88,818.
The name Birkenhead probably means “headland overgrown with birch”, from the Old English bircen meaning birch tree, of which many once grew on the headland which jutted into the river at Woodside. The name is not derived from the Birket, a stream which enters the Mersey between Birkenhead and Seacombe. The Birket is a later name which was introduced by Ordnance Survey.
