context_page_description: Noctorum is a suburb of Birkenhead, Merseyside, England. Administratively it is within the Metropolitan Borough of Wirral as part of Claughton Ward. Noctorum is in the north east of the Wirral Peninsula, bounded by the Beechwood estate to the north, Claughton and Oxton to the east and south east, and the River Fender and M53 motorway to the west.
  Due to a redefining of post towns by the Royal Mail in 2003, Noctorum is identified as being within Prenton, yet this was only a postal change and Noctorum itself still remains a part of Birkenhead.
  At the 2001 census the population of Noctorum was 4,990.
  For the 2011 census no population figures specific to Noctorum were available. However the total population of Claughton Ward, which includes Noctorum, was 14,705.
