About Hillside
Hillside is a charming residential suburb of Southport, Merseyside, nestled adjacent to Birkdale. This area, which became part of Southport in 1912, derives its name from the historic Hill Side building, marked on early maps. Notably, the former Birkdale station was located in Hillside, at the intersection of Dunkirk Road and Dover Road, adding to its historical significance. The remnants of Hillside Farm can still be found on the Hillside Golf Course, connecting the suburb's past to its present.
In terms of safety, there were no crimes reported in the immediate area during the most recent reporting period (May 2026). This makes Hillside a particularly low-crime area, which is often reflected in its desirability and property values.
