Crosby, Coastal suburb in Sefton, England
The town stretches along the Irish Sea coast with several districts including Blundellsands, Waterloo, and central Crosby, covering residential areas and green spaces.
The settlement, recorded as Crosebi in the Domesday Book of 1086, developed from a small fishing village into a suburban area following the 1848 railway construction.
The Antony Gormley installation 'Another Place' features 100 cast-iron figures positioned along Crosby Beach, extending from the shore into the sea.
Three railway stations on the Merseyrail Northern Line connect Crosby to Liverpool city center, with additional bus services to Southport and Preston.
The sea views from Crosby Beach were compared by a First Lord of the Admiralty in the 19th century to those of the Bay of Naples.
