About

Ravenmeols ward lies along the northern coastline of the Sefton district, incorporating a significant portion of the Formby coastline. The area is dominated by the extensive Formby National Trust property, featuring rare and shifting sand dunes, pine woodlands, and beach access. This landscape provides a habitat for native red squirrels and nesting sand lizards.

The ward is primarily residential, with housing concentrated in the settlements of Formby and Freshfield. The area is defined by its proximity to the Irish Sea and the extensive protected foreshore. The Formby Lifeboat Station, operating for over a century, is a local institution reflecting the area's maritime connection.
