Aughton & Holborn is a ward on the rural–urban fringe of West Lancashire in Lancashire, England, just north‑west of Ormskirk and within commuting distance of Liverpool. It mixes leafy suburban streets and village centres with surrounding farmland on the West Lancashire plain, and contains historic touches such as the old manor house at Aughton Hall.
Locally the area feels village‑centred with good schools, independent shops and active community clubs (cricket and horticultural societies are noticeable), while many residents commute to nearby towns and the city. The ward’s character is shaped by its agricultural past, pockets of protected historic buildings and the ease of rail and road connections that keep it quiet yet well connected.
