Greasby is a suburban village on the Wirral Peninsula in Merseyside, north‑west England, located a short distance from the Dee Estuary and the Irish Sea. It is one of the older settlements on the peninsula, with prehistoric and Norse influence visible in local place‑names and archaeological finds, and its built character mixes older cottages with extensive 20th‑century suburban development.

Today Greasby retains a village feel with a small parade of shops, schools and community groups, while many residents commute to Liverpool or Chester for work. Proximity to green spaces and nearby coastal towns such as West Kirby means easy access to walks, beaches and leisure activities, so it combines a quiet community atmosphere with good transport links.
