Litherland is an area within the Metropolitan Borough of Sefton, Merseyside. It was formerly an urban district, which included Seaforth and Ford. It neighbours Waterloo to the north, Seaforth to the west, and Bootle to the south and is approximately 5 miles (8.0 km) north of Liverpool city centre.
Historically in Lancashire, the name Litherland is a hybrid name, from Old Norse hlið/hlith-ar which means "slope" and Old English land "land".
Litherland was mentioned in the Domesday Book of 1086 as Liderlant, however there was no mention of Liverpool at that time. The first manor of Litherland consisted of one half and two quarters, the areas being Litherland including what is now Seaforth (the half) and present day Orrell and Ford (the two quarters).
Litherland remained a poor area until the arrival of the Leeds and Liverpool Canal in 1774, this brought the area into the modern world, originally providing a safe route through Lancashire from Liverpool to Wigan, and eventually in 1816 through to Leeds. The route became very busy primarily for goods and later for the transportation of passengers. The outcome of all this activity was to bring prosperous businessmen from the City to the countryside, where they had a desire to live.

Caminando por Belfast Parte 2 ------- Belfast oeste y la ruta de los murales Una de las principales actividades de los turistas en Belfast es recorrer hacer la ruta de los murales. La situación dista hoy mucho de ser la misma que la de hace un par de décadas, por lo que podemos movernos a pie por la ciudad sin temor a que surja algún problema, y es mejor que hacerlo con alguno de los tradicionales taxis negros que hacen el tour de los murales por el oeste de Belfast (donde el conductor se para en los puntos más importantes de la zona y va contando las historias de los diferentes puntos durante un recorrido de una duración aproximada de una hora por el oeste de Belfast). Haciendolo solo y con bibliografía ahorras dinero, pero deberas estar dispuesto a caminar y caminar. Pero tu manejas los ...
