About

Old Swan West occupies a central residential area of Liverpool, characterised by a mix of Victorian and interwar terraced housing. The ward is defined by several major arterial routes, including Prescot Road and St. Oswald's Street, which frame its boundaries. Local commerce is concentrated along these thoroughfares, providing essential services to the community. The housing stock is primarily practical in nature, with modest residential streets branching off the main roads.

A notable local landmark is the Newsham Park Hospital building, a historic former orphanage with distinctive Gothic architecture situated within the neighbouring park. The area is served by Old Swan Library, a Carnegie library established in the early 20th century. Green space is provided by the eastern section of Newsham Park, which includes formal gardens and a lake. The ward maintains a functional, neighbourhood-focused character distinct from the city's central tourist districts.
