History
​
Built by Ferdinand, the 5th Earl of Derby, second heir to the English throne and named "New Hall", it consisted only of an octagonal tower. The door was about six feet above ground level, for security and protection from high tides; the walls were one metre thick.
After the death of Sir Edward, the Castle passed through several members of the family until it became Leasowe Castle Hotel in 1891. It was bought by the trustees of the railway Convalescence Homes in 1910 and except for a short time during the First World War, when it accommodated German prisoners, it has been a hotel ever since. The castle is full of old artefacts and history, come check it out for yourself!
