Be careful! A unit may cover just the town or village, but it may include a big surrounding area. For example, in England and Wales rural districts units with RD or RSD suffixes may even exclude the places they are named after. The "Units covering this place" tab lists units whose boundaries contained Skelmersdale.
We know of no constituencies that were named after Skelmersdale; where constituencies had more than one name, we base this on their "preferred" name.

You can search for constituencies or other units that covered a particular location you are interested in by typing a postcode into our home page, or by using our Historic maps section, zooming in, selecting the Information option, and then clicking on your location.
