Wirral Jewish CommunityMetropolitan Borough of Wirral Wirral is a metropolitan borough in the county of Merseyside in the North West of England, comprising the northern part of the Wirral peninsula, across the Mersey estuary from Liverpool. It was created in 1974 upon the merger of several authorities (all then in the county of Cheshire), including the county boroughs of Birkenhead and Wallasey (which includes Seacombe) and the urban district of Hoylake. In 1986, Wirral became a unitary authority, when the metropolitan county of Merseyside lost its administrative status, becoming purely a ceremonial county. The Wirral Jewish Community Although there was a small number of Jews in the town of the Wirral (particularlly Birkenhead) from the middle of the nineteenth century, it was not until the end of that century that an organised Jewish congregation was established.
