About

Duke's Ward occupies the northern section of Sefton's borough, characterised by its mix of residential and agricultural land. The area includes the settlements of Lunt, Sefton Village, and parts of Netherton, with a landscape defined by flat, open fields and pockets of woodland. It functions as a green buffer between more densely populated urban areas to the south.

A notable landmark is the historic St. Helen's Church in Sefton Village, with its medieval origins and distinctive sandstone tower. The Leeds and Liverpool Canal runs through the ward, tracing its western boundary and supporting local wildlife. The overall environment is quiet and rural, with a network of country lanes connecting its scattered communities.
