Knowsley (/ˈnoʊzli/), commonly known as Knowsley Village, is a large village and civil parish located on the north-east outskirts of Liverpool, within the much larger Metropolitan Borough of Knowsley, Merseyside, England. It gave its name to the wider borough when it was formed in 1974.[2][3]
Within the boundaries of the historic county of Lancashire, at the 2001 Census it had a population of 11,343.[1] The parish includes Knowsley Hall and Knowsley Safari Park.[4] [5] There are three main built-up areas in the parish: the village of Knowsley itself, the southern end of the nearby Knowsley Business Park to the north, and in the south-west a suburban area including Stockbridge Village and the northern fringe of Huyton. To the west of Knowsley is the area of Woolfall Heath.[6]
