Administratively, the village is located in the Pensby & Thingwall Ward of the Metropolitan Borough of Wirral and the parliamentary constituency of Wirral West. At the 2001 Census, Barnston had a population of 3,620 (1,700 males, 1,920 females)[2] At the 2011 Census, the population was 947 (501 males, 441 females).[3] HistoryBarnston is mentioned in the Domesday Book as Bernestone and comprised two mills, a manor house and a hospital.[4] Formerly a township in Woodchurch Parish, Wirral Hundred.

It is noted that this was the first time that Brian Epstein put The Beatles into suits for their performances. John Lennon regarded this as the first, and perhaps the ultimate, sellout of their career. The Beatles played here again on Saturday 30 June and Tuesday 25 September 1962.[6][7][8] On 1 April 1974, local government reorganisation in England and Wales resulted in most of Wirral, including Barnston, being transferred from the county of Cheshire to Merseyside.
