Liscard Hall was a 19th century Grade II listed mansion located in Wallasey, Merseyside, England. Formerly known as Moors Hey House, the building was constructed in 1832 for Sir John Tobin, a former slave-ship captain, on an estate occupying 57 acres (23 ha) of land. In 2008 vandals set the disused building on fire, resulting in its subsequent demolition after being deemed unsafe.[1][2]
