Downholland
This parish extends from Lydiate Brook, a few yards north of
Lydiate church, to Halsall in the north and Formby in the west. It
is a parish of highly fertile farming country drained by brooks and
ditches. The hamlets of Downholland, Haskayne and Barton lie beside
the Southport to Liverpool road and the many herons - a long with
the Leeds and Liverpool Canal - are listed among the parish's
attractive features.
