About

Belfairs ward is situated in the north-western part of Southend-on-Sea, bordering the London Road and the Leigh-on-Sea parish. The area is largely residential, characterised by suburban housing estates and quiet, leafy streets. It contains Belfairs Park, a significant green space with woodland and open fields. The local infrastructure includes several primary schools and convenient access to main arterial routes connecting to the town centre and beyond.

A central feature of the ward is Belfairs Wood, a large remnant of the ancient Hadleigh Great Wood, managed as a nature reserve. This designated Site of Special Scientific Interest supports old-growth oak and hornbeam stands. The adjacent Belfairs Golf Course and the historic Belfairs House, now a conservation centre, contribute to the area's distinctively wooded and open character, separating it from more urbanised parts of the borough.
