About

Neston ward covers the town of Neston and its immediate surrounding villages, including Parkgate and Little Neston, situated on the southern tip of the Wirral Peninsula. The area is defined by its position along the Dee Estuary, with salt marsh and reclaimed farmland characterising much of its landscape. The ward functions as a local service centre for its communities, with a mix of residential streets, local shops, and schools serving the population.

The historic Parkgate promenade, once a busy port, now overlooks the vast tidal marshes of the estuary and is a noted spot for birdwatching. Inland, the town centre retains a traditional high street layout. The ward's geography is largely flat, with residential areas extending from the estuary edge towards the more rural boundaries, which include parts of Ness Botanic Gardens.
