Fazakerley, Residential ward in north Liverpool, England

Fazakerley is a residential ward in north Liverpool situated on flat terrain between Croxteth, Aintree, and Kirkby. The area contains housing, Aintree University Hospital, and a railway station serving the district.

The area transformed from farmland into an industrial center during World War II when the Royal Ordnance Factory manufactured weapons there. After the war, it developed into a residential neighborhood for the region.

Hartley's Village displays preserved Victorian worker houses built around the jam factory from 1886. Visitors can see how factory workers lived during that industrial period.

Fazakerley Railway Station offers regular connections to Liverpool city center. The area is accessible by public transport with good links to shops, services, and nearby neighborhoods.

The area is home to HMP Altcourse, which opened in 1997 as the first privately managed prison in the United Kingdom. This facility represented a turning point in British corrections.
