Garswood
Garswood is a village in the Metropolitan Borough of St Helens, Merseyside, England. The village is near to neighbouring Ashton-in-Makerfield and within a civil parish called Seneley Green.
==History==
Historically within Lancashire, Garswood is from Old English ''wudu'' "wood" with an uncertain first element. The name was recorded as ''Gratiswode'' (undated).
Garswood has seen, along with extensive farming, much coal mining activity in its past, due to strata running up to an adjacent fault causing much outcropping of coal seams. Mining has taken place using (comparatively) shallow shafts and many drifts. The last drift mine in the Garswood area, Quaker House Colliery, closed in 1992. Extensive opencast mining has taken place in more recent times and still continues in the area.
The village contains the Railway Hotel, the Stag Hotel and the Simms Road Inn public houses. It also has a Labour Club and a Conservative Club.
