About

Arboretum ward sits on Worcester's southwestern edge, bordered by the River Severn to the east. The area is primarily residential, with a mix of Victorian terraces and more modern housing estates. Its streets are arranged in a largely grid-like pattern, providing a direct route into the city centre. The ward's eastern boundary is defined by the river and its walking paths, which offer views across the water.

The ward's namesake, Worcester's Arboretum, is a formal Victorian park with manicured gardens and a distinctive, ornate bandstand. This green space is a central feature for local recreation. The area is also home to the Worcester Royal Infirmary's main site, a significant local employer. Residential life here is supported by several local schools and shopping parades along main roads like Bromyard Road.
