T: 0151 6302707

Fort Perch Rock was built as a coastal defence battery during the Napoleonic period to protect the Port of Liverpool. It is open all year round and features a museum, exhibitions, tea-room and is the venue for many exciting events. The Fort boasts several fine displays, most notably The Aviation Archaeology Museum which incorporates 'Luftwaffe over Merseyside'. On the Naval front there is the Titanic/Lusitania exhibition which covers the ship's connection with the Wirral. In addition, and of great interest, is the HM Submarine Thetis exhibition, which opened on the 60th anniversary of the sinking of the submarine - resulting in the tragic loss of seamen and civilian workers.
