By (user no longer on site) OP     over a year ago

Why do people say I’m going to “the”Wirral?

It’s called Wirral not “the” Wirral

You don’t say I’m going to the London, the Spain or wherever else?

Some toss pots say ‘off to Asda’s, Tesco’s’ why pluralise it? Unless you’ve a twitch and a tooth or five missing then, not getting why some people are ‘off to Tesco’s’.

Because there is a place called Wirral but the land mass as a whole between the river Dee and the Mersey is called the wirral peninsula.

It is actually the Wirral Peninsula, that's why it is referred to as the Wirral.
