Knotty Ash ward was an electoral division of Liverpool City Council centred on the Knotty Ash district of Liverpool.
The ward was formed for the 2004 local elections and dissolved in 2023.
A review by the Boundary Committee for England recommended that the council was formed of a reduced number of 90 members elected from 30 wards. The ward was formed from the former Broadgreen ward, taking in small parts from Childwall, Croxteth and Dovecot wards. [1] The ward was part of the Liverpool West Derby Parliamentary constituency.
The population of the ward at the 2021 Census was 14,355. [2]
Following a 2022 review by the Local Government Boundary Commission for England which decided that the existing 30 wards each represented by three Councillors should be replaced by 64 wards represented by 85 councillors, the ward was split up into the new Broadgreen,Knotty Ash & Dovecot Park, Sandfield Park, and West Derby Leyfield wards.

The 2023 Liverpool City Council election took place on 4 May 2023 to elect members of Liverpool City Council. Following a Boundary Review by The Local Government Boundary Commission for England, the size of the council was reduced from 90 to 85 seats with a change from three-member seats, elected in thirds, three years out of every four, following the British Government instigated Best Value Inspection Report which led to the appointment by the government of Commissioners and the subsequent boundary review for Council Wards in Liverpool which the government initiated with the proviso that the number of councillors be reduced and the predominant number of wards be reduced to single members with all-up elections every four years. The election also marked the end of Liverpool's directly-elected mayoralty. After the election the council reverted to having a leader of the council chosen from amongst the councillors instead. Labour retained control of the council and their group leader Liam Robinson became leader of the council after the election.
