Croxteth Hall Country Park is at the heart of what was once a great country estate stretching hundreds of square miles and was the ancestral home of the Molyneux family, the Earls of Sefton. It was presented to the City of Liverpool in 1974 by the late Lady Sefton, opened to the public in 1976 and is one of the major heritage centres of the North West, attracting thousands of visitors every year. Its grounds, especially the working farm, are popular with families and the farm buildings form the main part of the visitor attraction and they are home to a world renowned collection of rare breed cows, horses, pigs and sheep.
