A report of the Local Government Boundary Commission for England published in November 1978 set out proposals for changes to the wards of Liverpool City Council, maintaining the number of councillors at 99 representing 33 wards. Aigburth ward was represented by three councillors.[1]
The report describes the boundaries as "Commencing at a point where the eastern boundary of the City meets the West Allerton - Widnes railway, thence westwards and northwestwards along said railway to the eastern boundary of Grassendale Ward, thence generally northwestwards along said boundary to the southern boundary of Church Ward, thence eastwards along said boundary to the southwestern boundary of Woolton Ward, thence southeast wards along said boundary and generally eastwards along the
southern boundary of said ward to the eastern boundary of the City, thence southwards along said boundary to the point of commencement".[2]

The 2022 review by the Local Government Boundary Commission for England decided that the existing 30 wards each represented by three Councillors should be replaced by 64 wards represented by 85 councillors with varying representation by one, two or three councillors per ward.[6] The Allerton ward was recreated as a smaller, single-member ward from a section of the previous Church and Allerton and Hunts Cross wards.
The new ward boundaries follow Rose Lane, the West Coast Main Line, Booker Avenue, Mather Avenue, Heath Road, Menlove Avenue, and Allerton Road.
