The bank holiday stroll finshed off by the monley steps as you can see you would not want to go up them when under the weather or had to many at the pub next door!!!!
their are various stories why th steps are named after monkeys so take your pick!!!
one reason is by the time you get to the top you are practically on your knees - hence the name monke( if confused go to the zoo and visit the monkey house!!!)
The other explanatioin being a captain lived at the top of the steps and had a monkey!!!so their you go.
This area of tranmere used to be called DONKEY TOwn and used to be the main form of transport for goods and i am not sure maybe people but dont quote me as a bit before my time!!!
