Merseyside [ˈmɜːzɪsaɪd] ist ein Metropolitan County in England. Es entstand durch die Kommunalreform 1974 und liegt im Norden Englands am River Mersey. Merseyside besteht aus den Metropolitan Boroughs Liverpool, Knowsley, Sefton, St Helens und Wirral. 1986 wurde der Grafschaftsrat (county council) abgeschafft. Seitdem sind die fünf Metropolitan Boroughs selbständige Verwaltungseinheiten. Gleichwohl existiert Merseyside als Verwaltungseinheit weiter und ist eine zeremonielle Grafschaft. Merseyside grenzt an Lancashire, Greater Manchester und Cheshire. Traditionell wird zur Bezeichnung von etwas, das auf der Merseyside liegt, die Präposition „on“ statt „in“ verwendet.
