Halsall is a small rural village and civil parish on the West Lancashire plain in the borough of West Lancashire, in the county of Lancashire, England. It sits close to the Merseyside border, a few miles from the coastal resort of Southport and the market town of Ormskirk, occupying patchwork agricultural land and remnants of lowland bog such as Halsall Moss.
Historically the area was shaped by farming and peat cutting; buildings of interest include the historic St Cuthbert's Church and the old manor of Halsall Hall, while today the local economy remains largely agricultural with many residents commuting into nearby towns. The parish benefits from proximity to wetland reserves like Martin Mere and retains a strong village community centred on its pubs, village hall and local events.
