Prescot Map Poster

Prescot is a historic market town in Merseyside, a few miles east of Liverpool. Its centre sits on higher ground, and from above the old core stands out as a compact knot of narrow streets around the parish church, surrounded by later housing estates and the lines of major roads. The M57 passes to the west, and the extensive grounds of Knowsley Park lie just to the north.

Prescot has a long history of watchmaking and clock-making, and for generations was a centre of precision craft; the town's museum tells that story. More recently it has become known for the Shakespeare North Playhouse, opened in 2022, which draws on Prescot's claim to have had one of the earliest purpose-built playhouses outside London. A Prescot map poster frames all of this in one tight street plan.

The town's shape is defined by its edges: dense streets in the centre, the sweeping curves of motorway junctions, and the large green expanse of the neighbouring estate. It is a small place, but the map feels layered, combining a medieval street core, industrial terraces and twentieth-century road planning in a single frame.
