Southport - Newest addition to NDN

Southport is a famous seaside town in the North West of the U.K, being less than 20 miles from the city of Liverpool and just over 40 miles from the city of Manchester.

First founded in 1792, when an Innkeeper from nearby Churchtown opened the first Bathing House which made it popular for Victorian holiday makers. It was not only the bathes, but the beach, sand dunes, sea views and fresh sea breeze. Being on the Leeds and Liverpool Canal, during the Industrial Revolution, it had great transport links too, which also helped its growth. 

Southport has managed to keep some of its Victorian charm, but add a variety of entertainment and attractions for all the family, thus making it a popular holiday and short break destination.
