In 2004 Childwall Woods, one of Liverpool's wildlife havens, was awarded one of the highest accolades in the conservation world. Childwall Woods and Fields was named a Local Nature Reserve (LNR) area, the first in the city for 20 years. The site has been given the accolade because of its wide range of urban wildlife which includes small blue, small copper and red admiral butterflies, linnets and sparrow-hawks, English bluebell and southern marsh orchids. Bats, voles and foxes are also regular inhabitants of the area.
