About the data. West Kirby (Hilbre Island) is the site's primary station. New Brighton, Hoylake, Leasowe Bay, Thurstaston and Parkgate are derived from the Admiralty UKHO Liverpool (Gladstone Dock) Standard Port with published HW offsets. Heights are pass-through Liverpool predictions and not yet calibrated against local gauges. Treat as indicative and verify against UKHO EasyTide before any safety-critical use. In an emergency, dial 999 and ask for the Coastguard.
