Transport links

Southport has a well-developed transport network despite lacking a direct dual-carriageway link to the national motorway network. The town is well-connected by rail, with Southport railway station offering frequen1.5t services to Liverpool, Wigan, Bolton, Manchester, and Leeds. Stations at Birkdale, Hillside, Ainsdale and Meols Cop further enhance connectivity within the Merseyrail and Manchester lines.

The town's bus services are primarily operated by Arriva North West, providing routes to Liverpool, Wigan and Skelmersdale and local and circular services. Stagecoach Merseyside & South Lancashire and Cumfybus also contribute to the comprehensive bus network, ensuring efficient local and regional travel.

Key infrastructure projects like the Marine Way Bridge, which connects the Lord Street shopping district with seafront developments, and the pedestrianisation of Chapel Street enhance urban mobility within Southport. These initiatives reflect Southport's commitment to sustainable and efficient transport solutions, making it a well-connected town for residents and visitors.

History

Southport's history of settlement dates back to the Domesday Book, with some areas having Viking-origin names. The earliest recorded human activity in the region was during the Middle Stone Age, driven by the abundant wildlife and natural resources.

The Domesday Book references the area as Otergimele, with 50 huts housing around 200 people, primarily concentrated in what is now Churchtown, home to the historic St Cuthbert's church. This early community gradually grew, strengthened by a thriving fishing industry and agricultural advancements following the drainage of Martin Mere in the 17th century.

Shopping and leisure

Southport has a historic reputation as a hub for fine jewellery, with many high-quality independent jewellers. Its town centre has more independent businesses per square metre than London.

At Wayfarers Shopping Arcade, you can find boutique shopping and unique finds, whilst Central 12, Ocean Plaza, Marble Place and Chapel Street are home to high-street favourites.

Designed to boost local shopping and keep customer spending in the local economy, individuals can purchase and preload the Southport Gift Card, which is usable in many retailers and leisure venues.

Dining and nightlife

Southport's food scene offers more than just seaside fish and chips. You can enjoy a range of dining options, from traditional pubs and restaurants to relaxed cafes, tearooms and bars. The Southport Restaurateurs Association promotes local independent eateries, ensuring that 70% of ingredients are locally sourced.

With over 200 places to choose from, including The Grand, Kalash Divine Indian and Southport Market, there's something for everyone. Stockport has it all, whether you're after a traditional breakfast, a fine dining experience or a casual bite.
