New Ferry Butterfly Park used to be the railway good yard at Bebington and New Ferry Station. The railway activities left behind sidings, lime waste, coal dust and clay soils. Wildlife has moved in to make grasslands and woodland, to which we have added two ponds. Many types of mini-beast thrive here, including butterflies, moths, shield bugs, grasshoppers, snails, spiders, bees and a variety of pond life. The southern half of the Park has wheelchair-accessible paths. There is limited car parking available within the Park.
