About

Bilborough is a residential ward in the western part of the city of Nottingham.

It contains several local shopping parades providing essential services to the community, with the main concentration found along Bracebridge Drive. The ward includes significant green corridors like the parks and paths along the River Leen.

A notable community landmark is the Bilborough College campus, a further education institution housed in a distinctive 1930s building originally built as a grammar school. The ward's layout is influenced by major roads like the A6002, which connects it to the city centre and other suburbs. Local recreational spaces include Bilborough Park and the grounds surrounding the historic St Martin's Church, which dates back to the 12th century.
