Apley & Leegomery

Apley & Leegomery is a ward in the borough of Telford and Wrekin, lying to the east of Telford town centre. The area is largely residential, with a mix of post‑war terraces, semi‑detached houses and later infill developments. Local provision includes primary schools, small shopping parades and community facilities that serve nearby streets, and a community centre that hosts regular activities and meetings. Housing patterns and street layouts reflect the town’s post‑war growth rather than older village cores.

Green space is provided by several small parks and playing fields scattered through the ward, and there are allotment sites used by local gardeners. Bus services link the area into the wider Telford network and provide routes to town‑centre services and regional rail stations. Council amenities and neighbourhood policing operate from nearby civic hubs, so residents typically travel a short distance for larger retail or civic services. The ward’s character is shaped by its role as a residential eastern quarter of Telford with practical local amenities.
