Grange is a small suburb on the Wirral Peninsula, England. It is situated near West Kirby and Caldy and is part of the West Kirby & Thurstaston Ward of the Metropolitan Borough of Wirral. ==History== According to the Domesday Book, Grange (also called Great Caldy, or Caldy Grange) was one of the estates owned by Robert de Rodelent. It later passed into the hands of Basingwerk Abbey, until the dissolution of the Monasteries. In the seventeenth century it became the property of William Glegg who also founded Calday Grange Grammar School, and it remained the property of the Gleggs until 1785, when it was bought by John Leigh, a Liverpool solicitor and property speculator, who refounded the grammar school. He passed it on to his son John Shaw Leigh who later went on to buy Luton Hoo. By the twentieth century the area was in the hands of the trustees of Madame de Falbe, his son John Gerard Leigh's widow, who had remarried to Christian de Falbe, the Danish ambassador. Until 1 April 1974, Grange, along with the rest of the Wirral, was part of the county of Cheshire.
