Mersey View is the lookout on the wooded sandstone edge of Frodsham Hill, high above the town of Frodsham. From the top you get a sweeping outlook across the Mersey estuary to Liverpool, the Runcorn bridges and the Cheshire plain, with a war memorial marking the spot. It’s a short but steep pull up from the town, or you can drive most of the way. Frodsham station is under a kilometre below.
