About

Lymm North and Thelwall is a ward in the southeast of the Warrington borough, characterised by its position along the Bridgewater Canal and the Manchester Ship Canal. The area includes the historic village of Lymm, with its conservation area centred around the dam and sandstone cliffs, and the neighbouring settlement of Thelwall. The landscape is defined by these waterways, which have historically shaped its development and continue to influence its layout.

The ward features a mix of residential areas, local retail, and green spaces like Lymm Dam. Thelwall is notably situated on a pronounced meander of the Manchester Ship Canal, with the Thelwall Viaduct carrying the M6 motorway high above the waterway. This creates a distinct intersection of major transport routes, from the historic canal to the modern motorway, within a primarily suburban setting.
