Dist:0.8km<br/>Brimstage, a tiny hamlet virtually at the centre of the Wirral, is probably best known for its most striking feature, Brimstage Hall, which is thought to have been constructed some time between the 12th and 14th centuries, retaining many of its original medieval features. Thought to have been a tower house, the oldest part of the house is the 12-13th century tower, with later, possibly 16th century, extensions and a 19th century north wing. The ground floor room of the tower is believed to have been a chapel. A west wing, now demolished, was formerly surrounded by a moat. These days the Hall has been converted to house craft shops and businesses in its main courtyard and is seen as an important local landmark
