Background

2023 ward

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 Wavertree Village ward was created as a single-member ward from the western half of the former Wavertree ward.[1]

The ward boundaries follow Liverpool Manchester Railway, Mill Lane, Wavertree High Street, Prince Alfred Road and the West Coast Main Line. The ward is part of the Wavertree district of Liverpool, and includes the Wavertree Playground, Wavertree Sports Park, and the Wavertree Village lock-up.[1]
