Orrell Park ward is an electoral district of Liverpool City Council within the Liverpool Walton constituency.

Background

[edit]

2023 ward

[edit]

The ward was created for the elections held on 4 May 2023 following a 2022 review by the Local Government Boundary Commission for England, which decided that the previous 30 wards each represented by three Councillors should be replaced by 64 wards represented by 85 councillors with varying representation by one, two or three councillors per ward. The Orrell Park ward was created as a single-member ward from the north-western corner of the former Warbreck ward.[1] The ward boundaries follow the Merseyrail Northern Line Ormskirk branch line, the Langton Dock Branch line, and the city boundary. The ward covers part of the Orrell Park district of Liverpool.[1]
