About

Belle Vale is a residential district located in the southeast of Liverpool, centred around its large shopping centre and surrounding housing estates. The area is primarily composed of post-war terraced and semi-detached homes, with significant green spaces like Childwall Valley Green Wedge providing open parkland.

The Belle Vale Shopping Centre, one of the first indoor malls in the city, serves as a focal point for local commerce and community activity. The area includes several primary schools and community centres that support local life.
