Formby

Formby is a civil parish and town in the Metropolitan Borough of Sefton, Merseyside, England, which had a population of 22,419. Verifiably in Lancashire, three houses are recorded in the Domesday Book under "Fornebei", Halsall, Walton and Poynton. Cockle raking and shrimp angling kept going into the nineteenth century. By 1872, the township and sub-area was comprised of two chapelries, Birkdale township, the villas of Ainsdale and Raven-Meols and Altcar ward.

Formby was based on the plain connecting the Irish Sea drift a couple of miles north of the Crosby channel. A suburbanite town for Liverpool, it is additionally a famous visitor goal in the late spring months, with day trippers pulled in to its shorelines, sand rises and untamed life, especially the jeopardized red squirrel and natterjack amphibian. The zone is saved by the National Trust, and assigned a site of Specific Scientific Interest.

There are seven elementary schools in Formby: Woodlands, Redgate CP, Our Lady of Compassion RC, St Jerome's RC, Trinity St Peters C. of E., Freshfield CP and St Luke's C. of E. Trinity St Peter's C. of E. in Formby is the amalgamation of two previous elementary schools – St Peter's and Holy Trinity – the last of which shut in July 2006.
