About

Ellesmere Port South is a primarily residential district situated on the southern edge of the town centre, bordering the Manchester Ship Canal. The area is characterised by a mix of post-war housing estates and more modern developments, with significant green spaces like Whitby Park providing recreational areas. Its layout is heavily influenced by major transport routes, including the M53 motorway, which defines its eastern boundary.

The district's history is closely linked to industry, with the large Stanlow Oil Refinery and associated chemical plants located immediately to the south, shaping the local economy. A notable local feature is the National Waterways Museum, housed in the historic dock complex, which details the area's canal heritage. Residential streets are generally quiet, with local shopping facilities centred along Whitby Road and Stanney Lane.
