About

Boley Park is a residential ward situated in the eastern part of Lichfield. The area is primarily characterised by housing developments built from the 1960s onwards, offering a mix of detached and semi-detached homes. Its layout includes numerous cul-de-sacs and green spaces, with local shopping parades providing essential amenities. The ward is bordered by the A51 road to the north and includes areas of open land that separate it from the city centre.

The local geography is gently undulating, with the parkland of Boley Park itself forming a central recreational space. The area is served by several schools, contributing to its family-oriented nature. A network of footpaths connects the residential streets, facilitating access to the wider area. The ward maintains a distinct separation from the historic core of Lichfield, giving it a more modern, suburban character.
