Location

Brimstage is a village located in the centremost part   of the Wirral Peninsula, Merseyside, England, east of Heswall and west of Bebington. The village is located in the Clatterbridge Ward of the Metropolitan Borough of Wirral and in the parliamentary constituency of Wirral South.

Brimstage was formerly a township in Bromborough Parish of the Wirral Hundred.  On 1 April 1974, local government reorganisation in England and Wales resulted in most of Wirral, including Brimstage, transfer from the county of Cheshire to Merseyside as part of the Metropolitan Borough of Wirral.

Brimstage is a rural community centred around a small village green, consisting of Brimstage Hall, numerous farms and a small number of dwellings. The Hall houses the 'Country Mouse' restaurant and a craft centre located in its courtyard, which includes the Voirrey Embroidery Centre.

Brimstage, along with the neighbouring villages of Raby and Thornton Hough, are within an Area of Special Landscape Value, a protective designation to preserve the character and appearance of the area. This is part of the Wirral Unitary Development Plan of the Metropolitan Borough of Wirral.
