About

Rural West ward encompasses a large, primarily agricultural area on the western side of the West Lancashire district. The landscape is dominated by flat, open farmland, with fields of crops and pastureland divided by drainage ditches and hedgerows. Settlements here are small and scattered, consisting of hamlets and isolated farmsteads rather than towns. The ward's character is defined by its working agricultural environment and quiet, open roads.

A significant feature is the presence of the Leeds and Liverpool Canal, which cuts through the northern part of the ward, providing a linear corridor for wildlife and leisure. The land is part of the West Lancashire Coastal Plain, with the historic Martin Mere wetland nature reserve located just beyond its eastern boundary. The area's economy and daily rhythms are closely tied to farming and land management.
