A collection of photographs of the East Wirral area of Merseyside taken over 15 years. This is a region where people have traditionally taken casual work as and when it was available, with few guarantees for their future. These photographs are a response to the disaffection of this community.

Rooted in autobiography, Grant's work covers a fifteen year period. It focuses on the part of Merseyside where he was brought up and still lives. There is little industry, work is often casual and infrequent and their are few guarantees for the future. These are lives that are improvised and uncertain and in The Close Season he looks at how this disaffected and dislocated community responds to the limited horizons of its world.
