Roby, Merseyside
Roby is a village and electoral ward in the Metropolitan Borough of Knowsley, Merseyside, England. Part of the wider built-up-area of Huyton-with-Roby with Huyton, Roby is effectively a dormitory village or suburb of the adjacent City of Liverpool. At the 2021 Census, the population of Roby electoral ward was 9,353.
Historically in Lancashire, Roby was part of the hundred of West Derby, an ancient subdivision of Lancashire covering the south-west of the county, as a broadly rural village and township within the Parish of Huyton. In the 1890's Roby became part of the wider Huyton with Roby Urban District & civil parish.
Growing industrialisation of the region during the industrial revolution brought the Liverpool and Manchester Railway to Roby at the Roby railway station in 1830.
