About

Blundellsands ward occupies a coastal stretch in northern Sefton, bordering the Irish Sea. The area is primarily residential, characterised by wide, tree-lined avenues and substantial detached and semi-detached homes. Its layout is orderly, with a clear separation from the more commercial centres of Crosby and Waterloo to the south. The geography is flat, with the land gently meeting the extensive shoreline that defines its western boundary.

The beach here is notably broad and sandy, forming part of the Sefton coastline. It is a functional space for local recreation and dog walking, directly accessible from many of the residential roads. A distinctive local landmark is the collection of concrete cubes from Anthony Gormley's "Another Place" installation, which stand on the tidal sands. The area maintains a quiet, settled atmosphere, with local amenities clustered along its periphery.
