Netherfield was a former electoral ward in the City of Liverpool, Merseyside, England, which existed from 1895 until its dissolution in 1973 as part of a major boundary reorganization.
History Netherfield ward was created in 1895 following the division of the original Everton ward into four: Everton, Netherfield, St. Domingo, and Brockfield. The ward was named after Netherfield Road, a key thoroughfare in the area.
In 1973, as part of a wider reorganization of Liverpool’s wards, Netherfield was abolished and its areas were merged into newly drawn wards. The restructuring aimed to modernize the city's electoral boundaries.https://www.cambridge.org/core/books/politics-of-local-government-boundary-changes-and-representation/5B8F8D8F11B60D578F0A3E8819A14B93

Legacy Though the ward no longer exists, its name remains associated with Netherfield Road, a historically significant part of Liverpool. The electoral changes of 1973 marked a shift in the city’s political landscape, with older wards like Netherfield being absorbed into broader constituencies.https://www.liverpoolhistorybooks.com/a-history-of-liverpool-1207-2007
