The historic village of Port Sunlight is a purpose-built model village created at the end of the 19th Century.

Originally created by Lord Lever for workers at his soap factory, the village features wide boulevards lined with historic cottages, pristine lawns and attractions.

Lady Lever Art Gallery houses the personal art collection of Lord Lever, including the world’s finest collection of Wedgwood Jasperware.

The village has also provided the backdrop to various blockbuster films and TV shows, most famously the Peaky Blinders TV series.
