About

Childwall East is a mainly residential sector in the south of Liverpool, about four miles from the city centre. Queens Drive cuts through the area and local bus routes link to Liverpool’s central districts. Housing is largely inter-war and post-war terraced and semi-detached homes, laid out in crescents and avenues. Small shopping parades and community facilities sit at several junctions, providing everyday services, and primary schools and a health centre serve the local population.

Green space threads through the neighbourhood. Childwall Woods lies along the eastern edge, with a network of public footpaths that connect streets to woodland. The paths pass by exposed sandstone where rock faces edge the trails, and small sports pitches and allotments sit within easy walking distance of nearby homes. The pattern of streets, parks and short local routes makes the area practical for daily life while keeping road links to the rest of the city.
