A great place to live....

Now a mature suburb of Liverpool, there is still a 'village' feel to West Derby, with its excellent schools and amenities.

The Point not only allows easy access to Liverpool city centre, but is only a short drive away from the M57, M58 and the M62, and the rest of the extensive North West motorway network.

Part of a great city....

The Beatles, two premiership football teams, two cathedrals, the ferries: Liverpool is undoubtedly one of the most 'familiar' cities in the country. It's also a city of outstanding architectural interest and cultural diversity.

From the world-famous waterfront, featuring the 'Three Graces' of the Liver Building, The Cunard Building and The Port of Liverpool Building, the city radiates out to embrace such places as the Albert Dock and the stunning cathedrals at opposite ends of Hope Street.

As you would expect from a major city, Liverpool offers a vibrant and extensive shopping experience, from the well-known high street names to designer boutiques. And all in a unique atmosphere that has helped make Liverpool world-famous.

With culture....

Yet for all its familiarity, there is so much to Liverpool that is waiting to be discovered. For instance, it's selection as European City of Culture for 2008 comes as no great surprise. The city features four outstanding theatres including the intimate and challenging Everyman to the grandiose and mainstream Empire.

It boasts more museums than any other city outside of London. There's the Walker Art Gallery and the Tate Liverpool showing every style of painting and sculpture from the classical to the latest touring exhibitions. Students are also well catered for with a choice of universities as well as the Liverpool Institute for the Performing Arts founded by the former Beatle, Sir Paul McCartney.

And nightlife....

Nightlife and dining out are very well served with a thriving club scene and every culinary theme from Russian to Chinese, through to the sophistication of Simply Heathcote's.

Fresh air and greenery are also in great supply thanks to the city's heritage of Victorian parks - most notably Sefton Park with its recently restored Palm House, a Grade II Listed building.

From M62

At the end of the M62, follow the A5058 North signposted Bootle and Docks onto Queens Drive. Continue along dual carriageway through first set of pedrestrian lights, three sets of traffic lights and a further set of pedestrian lights. Turn right at the traffic lights (Stag and Rainbow pub and Travel Inn on your left) into Mill Lane. Continue onto Barnfield Drive and go past the Bill Shankley playing fields on the right. At the traffic lights go straight ahead onto Melwood Drive. Go past the Liverpool FC training ground and the Deysbrook pub, the site is positioned on your right.
