The butchers in New Ferry has survived two world wars and an explosion that affected much of the town centre
A Wirral butcher described as “the cornerstone of the local community for generations” is about to see a major change as it celebrates its 180th anniversary. Like its hometown which is seeing major new developments go up in its centre, it’s now looking to hand over the business to the next generation. Edge and Son which is located on New Chester Road in New Ferry was set up in 1844 and is considered to be one of the oldest businesses both on the Wirral and the UK.
More than seven years later, work is underway by the Wirral Council to regenerate the town centre with developments going up on the explosion site as well as the former locations of the homes and businesses opposite that were destroyed . Planning permission has also been granted to redevelop a car park and a former Co-Op into another housing development while funding is due to be spent by 2026 to revamp the pedestrian area.
