I assume this is the best place for this!
Where's a good place to go blackberry picking in Mersyside - somewhere accessable by the excellent Merseyrail would be useful.
I haven't been in ages and I've got lots of apples to use up:p

Actually - just realised the blackberry season is probably over already :sad: but still where can I go next year??
I used to pick them along the railways (*not recomended) for my nan who used to make them into pie.
Other than that then Liverpool's parks might have em, Sefton, Calderstones etc...
I know also along The Wirral Way, there are bushes-a-plenty, its a 12 mile long walk which I used to do often as a kid.
Not too sure wetehr u would find any in town :p
S******y woods in Crosby has them!
Make sure you pick the high up ones
though.
I always wondered as a kid why mine were bitter !!!!!

That's a lovely clear pic of Croxteth Hall Kev.
ps,
they are selling Blackberries in our local fruit shop for £1 (for approx 10 Berries) !! :shock:
I've got more Crocky Hall Pics: Here
Great pics, Kev. I've lived close by for over twenty-odd years and never been inside... sad eh? Did you know you can tour the farm and the walled garden, but you'd have to check the times, I think the garden is only open in the summertime (as you would expect). Don't suppose you met the ghost then? :) :)
