Clubmoor ward was an electoral division of Liverpool City Council in the Liverpool Walton Parliamentary constituency.

Background

[edit]

The ward was formed in 1953 and its boundaries were altered in 1973, 1980 and 2004 before being dissolved in 2023.

1980 boundaries

1980 ward boundaries

A report of the Local Government Boundary Commission for England published in November 1978 set out proposals for changes to the wards of Liverpool City Council, maintaining the number of councillors at 99 representing 33 wards. Croxteth ward was represented by three councillors.[1]

The report describes the boundaries as "Commencing at a point where Muirhead Avenue meets Delamain Road, thence northwestwards along said road and Lisburn Lane to Finvoy Road, thence southwestwards along said road crossing Glengariff Street to the southeastern boundary of number 43 Glengariff Street, thence continuing southwestwards along said boundary and in prolongation thereof to the eastern boundary of the Marlborough Allotment Gardens, thence southeastward along said boundary, southwestwards along the southern boundary of said allotment gardens and in prolongation thereof to the Liverpool Exchange - Broad Green railway thence northwestwards along said railway to Morella Road, thence northeastwards along said road to Cherry Lane, thence southeastwards along said lane to Richard Kelly Drive, thence northwards along said drive to the southern boundary of Pirrie Ward, thence northeastwards along said boundary to the western boundary of Gillmoss Ward, thence generally southeastwards along said boundary to Muirhead Avenue East, thence south-westwards along said avenue and Muirhead Avenue to the point of commencement".[2]

2004 boundaries

2004 ward boundaries

A review by the Boundary Committee for England recommended that the council was formed of a reduced number of 90 members elected from 30 wards.[3]

The new ward was formed from the western half of the former Clubmoor ward, the eastern portion of the former County ward, and the southwestern corner of Pirrie ward.[3]

The ward boundaries followed Walton Hall Avenue, the western property boundary of Torrisholme Road, behind Pirrie Road, Stopgate Lane, Parthenon Drive, Lorenzo Drive, Muirhead Avenue, Delamain Road, Maiden Lane, the southeastern property boundary of Worcester Drive, Pennsylvania Road, the Canada Dock Branch Line, and Stanley Park Avenue North.[3]

The population of the ward at the 2011 census was 15,272,[4] The ward boundary was changed at the 2004 municipal elections.[5] and at the 2021 Census was 15,894.[6]

The ward was dissolved at the 2023 elections where it was distributed into the new Clubmoor West, Clubmoor East, Tuebrook Larkhill, and Norris Green wards, and a small part of the Walton ward.
