Rimrose Valley is a 3.5 km country park and valley which forms a border between Crosby and Litherland in the borough of Sefton, Merseyside, England, with the Leeds and Liverpool Canal on its eastern edge. Because the brook that runs through the park regularly floods, it remained clear of the housing developments that grew up on either side. However, the central area was used as a tip until 1978 and restoration began in 1993.〔 Rimrose Valley is now part of the Mersey Forest〔 and the most southerly extent of the West Lancashire Coastal Plain. The south of the valley contains the Brookvale Nature Reserve which is the only one in Sefton that is not on the coast and is, along with Fulwood Way in the north, a Site of Special Local Biological Interest.〔 Because of the size of the park, the area has been divided into five colour-coded zones that allow people to narrow down their location if they need to contact the emergency services. Following concern over young people riding scrambler bikes in the park, resulting in at least one serious accident, the police launched a crackdown in 2015. ==Etymology== Rimrose is a Hybrid word from Old English ''hrim'' (modern "rim"), 'border' and Celtic ros meaning "moor" or "heath". 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Rimrose Valley」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
