About

Billesley ward lies in the south of Birmingham, primarily residential with a mix of housing types from inter-war semis to modern developments. The area is anchored by the large Billesley Common, a significant green space that provides a focal point for recreation. Local shopping needs are served by the central parade on Trittiford Road, offering essential retailers and services. The ward is well-connected by several key bus routes along Alcester and Priory Roads, linking it to wider Birmingham.

A notable local landmark is Stitchley Mill, a former water mill on the River Rea that hints at the area's historical agricultural past. The ward is home to a number of schools, including Billesley Primary School, serving the community's families. Residential streets are generally quiet, with a sense of separation from the more bustling centres of Kings Heath and Moseley nearby. The overall character is one of a settled, established suburban neighbourhood.
