Chester North and Neston is a proposed constituency of the House of Commons in the UK Parliament.[1] Further to the completion of the 2023 Periodic Review of Westminster constituencies, it will first be contested at the next general election.[2]

Boundaries

The constituency will be composed of the following wards of the Borough of Cheshire West and Chester (as they existed on 1 December 2020):

  • Blacon; Chester City & the Garden Quarter; Great Boughton; Little Neston; Neston; Newton & Hoole; Parkgate; Saughall & Mollington; Upton; Willaston & Thornton.[3]

The seat will cover the majority of, and replace, the City of Chester constituency, comprising areas of Chester to the north of the River Dee, including the city centre. It will be extended northwards to include the town of Neston, currently part of the Ellesmere Port and Neston constituency (to be abolished).[4]
