Notes:
1) An asterisk (*) denotes new sites (i.e. not included in the previous 1998 Unitary Development Plan).
2) In column 2 the letters “SBI” mean that the site is a Site of Biological Interest, whilst “SLGI” means that it is a Site of Local Geological Interest. Where a site is both an SBI and an SLGI, the boundary shown on the Proposals Map is for the Site of Biological Interest. The specific Site of Local Geological Interest for these “joint sites” is smaller than the SBI and is not shown separately on the Proposals Map. Details of all sites, including the boundaries of all SLGIs and a written citation detailing the biological interest present on sites can be obtained by contacting Knowsley Council’s Department of Regeneration and Development.
