Higher Irlam & Peel Green is a residential area in the southwestern part of Salford, largely bordered by the Manchester Ship Canal and the Bridgewater Canal. The ward contains significant stretches of industrial and logistical land, particularly along these major waterways, which historically shaped its development.

Large areas of open land, including parts of the Chat Moss peat bog, border the residential zones, contributing to a distinctly green and open feel on its outskirts.
