LOL that rings a bell. We lived in Ben Nevis Rd., which is on the Tranmere Hall Estate (1920's). Definitely Tranmere; Higher Tranmere if you like, but not Prenton, which is what my mother always reckoned.
Incidentally, the Rovers' ground; Prenton Park, is in Tranmere, which reaches as far as Woodchurch Rd./Storeton Rd. to the West.


Carpe diem.

I still get annoyed when places blatantly in Leasowe are called 'Moreton'. It's like there's still that negative stigma attached to us! Some of us are decent people, honest!

Lol but a lot of older people just call it Moreton as it is a relativley new area in Wirral. But yes, i dont think that Oyster Pub helped your cause !

Chris, everybody use to say they lived in Prenton once they where in a house on the borough road side of greenway road. Tranmere always had a stigma to it for some reason, and lower tranmere more so than higher tranmere.
