River Fender

The confluence of the Birket and Fender at Leasowe.

The River Fender is a tributary of the Birket, in Wirral, Merseyside. The river starts as field drainage between Prenton and Storeton, before shortly joining with Prenton Brook. The river flows between the Borderlands railway line and the M53 motorway, between Prenton and Upton, and then alongside the M53, to Leasowe. The Fender then joins the Birket at Leasowe. The Birket, in turn, discharges into the West Float at the site of the former Wallasey Pool.
