Knowsley

'The traditional parkland known as Court Hey Park is one of Knowsley's best-kept secrets.

The National Wildflower Centre, founded by Landlife opened at Court Hey Park in 2000. The centre, one of only two of its kind in the world, helps to promote the creation and conservation of wildflower landscapes. ALERT Website Link changed.

'Stockbridge Village is a place where you can be more physically active by taking advantage of walking routes on and around the village. A booklet is available which aims to encourage regular walking to improve health. This is achieved by starting with the shorter routes and progressing to the longer walks which take in local beauty spots and woodland ...'
