Royden Park and Thurstaston Common comprise an area of almost 250 acres of parklands, wood and heath at Frankby and Thurstaston respectively, within the Metropolitan Borough of Wirral, England.
The Common is a designated Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) and a designated Local Nature Reserve. From the top of the 298 ft (91 m) Thurstaston Hill, on the Wirral Peninsula, are views of the Dee Estuary (itself an SSSI) and over the River Dee to the Clwydian Hills of Wales. The area is popular with walkers and families.
