Hants Lane Car Park

Alright, so you're heading to Ormskirk near Southport and need to ditch the car? Hants Lane Car Park on Burscough Street is worth a look. The big plus is it's FREE. Can't argue with that these days, can you? It's handier for the Ormskirk shops and market, than central Southport itself, but still useful.

It gets a 4.0 rating based on 39 Google reviews, so people seem generally happy enough. It’s a decent-sized car park, but being free, it can fill up, especially on market days (Thursdays and Saturdays). If you're heading there around lunchtime on those days, you might have to circle a bit.

It's just off the main road, so pretty easy to find, and you're a short walk from the main shopping area. It's not the prettiest car park in the world, let's be honest, but it does the job. And again, did I mention it was FREE? Always a winner.

Just a heads-up: there aren't any marked bays as such, so park considerately. And remember your registration details if you're popping into any shops that offer parking refunds!
