Crosby's Neighbourhoods and Their Roofs
Crosby grew as a chain of settlements along the Liverpool to Southport railway, so roofs vary a great deal from one district to the next:
- Blundellsands was planned in the nineteenth century as a suburb of large detached villas around the Key Park, many in Victorian Gothic style with steeply pitched slate roofs, ornate gables and tall chimneys.
- Moor Park, developed from the late 1890s, has individually designed houses with a strong Arts and Crafts influence, including tile hanging and decorative timbering.
- Little Crosby is an old estate village of brick and sandstone cottages and farm buildings.
- Great Crosby’s suburbs are mostly pre-war semis with curved bays and tiled roofs, plus post-war estates that include 1970s dormer bungalows.
Conservation Area Rules That Affect Your Roof
Crosby has four conservation areas: Blundellsands Park, Moor Park, Little Crosby and Crosby Hall. New dormers need planning permission in each, and Moor Park has had an Article 4 direction since 2010, so most alterations facing a road or open space need consent there. Sefton Council’s guidance also includes details that are easy to miss:
- porch and portico roofs should not be covered in mineral felt
- original gutters and downpipes should be replaced in cast iron of the same pattern, or cast aluminium if cast iron cannot be found
- in Moor Park, tile hanging and decorative timbering should be kept and repaired in their original form

FAQs
Roofing Questions from Crosby
Can I swap the slates on my Blundellsands villa for concrete tiles?
Not without checking first. In Blundellsands Park, Sefton Council expects a like-for-like covering, so natural slate is normally the answer, and sound slates from the old roof can often be reused. Our slate roofing page explains more.
How exposed are Crosby roofs to the weather?
Very, close to the shore. Storms in the 1920s and 1930s claimed houses on the seaward side of Burbo Bank Road North, and the present sea wall dates from the 1960s. Wind is the main threat now, so after a gale check from the ground for slipped slates, lifted lead or leaning pots. See our storm damage repairs.
Can you match tile hanging on a Moor Park house?
In most cases. Hung tiles on walls and gables can be refixed, and broken or missing ones replaced with reclaimed or new tiles of a similar size, colour and profile. We will tell you if anything needs Sefton’s approval first.
Do you cover Thornton, Hightown and Little Crosby?
Yes. As well as Great Crosby and Blundellsands, we cover Little Crosby, Thornton, Hightown, Brighton-le-Sands and neighbouring Waterloo. Our base in Maghull lies a few miles to the east.
