About

Westminster ward lies in the northern part of the borough of Cheshire West and Chester, incorporating the town of Ellesmere Port and its surrounding areas.

Inland, the ward contains several parks and green spaces, such as Whitby Park, providing recreational areas for local communities. The National Waterways Museum, located on the canal, details the region's industrial heritage.
