Knowsley

Only 8 miles from Liverpool, Knowsley is best known for its Safari Park where visitors can spy on free-roaming lions, tigers, giraffes, rhinos and the biggest herd of African elephants in the UK. Nature-lovers will also adore the National Wildflower Centre, one of only two of its kind in the world.

Knowsley has the potential to develop its tourism offer building on the success of Knowsley Safari Park (in the top 10 of national wildlife attractions) and the National Wildflower Centre (recognised as a cultural gem). It also has the potential to provide sites for a variety of new leisure attractions.

The Prescot Museum is well worth a visit, offering a permanent exhibition that reflects the local history of the town and the important clock and watch-making tradition as well as many new temporary exhibitions. Knowsley boasts two contemporary art galleries, located in Huyton and Kirkby, hosting diverse and exciting exhibitions throughout the year.
