Worsley and Eccles 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 (as they existed on 1 December 2020):

  • The City of Salford wards of: Barton & Winton; Boothstown & Ellenbrook; Cadishead & Lower Irlam; Eccles; Higher Irlam & Peel Green; Swinton & Wardley; Worsley & Westwood Park.
  • The Metropolitan Borough of Wigan ward of Astley Mosley Common.[3]

The seat will cover the majority of, and replace, the Worsley and Eccles South constituency, following the addition of remaining parts of Eccles, as well as the town of Swinton from Salford and Eccles (to be renamed Salford). The Wigan Borough ward of Astley Mosley Common will be transferred from Leigh.[4]
