Halsnead Garden Village is a proposed garden village close to the Halsnead Park area of Whiston in Knowsley, Merseyside, England. The UK Government announced the proposal in January 2017.^[1]

Proposal

The plan for the village includes over 1500 homes, a country park, a new primary school, and a variety of community and leisure facilities. It is "one of the biggest residential developments on Merseyside", at a cost of £270M.^[2]

In February 2022 Knowsley Council granted permission for housebuilder Taylor Wimpey to start developing 40 acres at the site for a 350-home development, forming part of the south-eastern parcel of the land. Taylor Wimpey and other developers are working on plans for further homes in the area.^[3]

Knowsley Council also gave the green light for Bloor homes to build their development known as "Elowen Garden Village", situated on the opposite side of Halsnead Park.^{[citation needed]}
