About

Bordesley lies just east of Birmingham city centre, north of Small Heath and west of Bordesley Green. The area developed around canals and railways; a lattice of canal arms and brick rail viaducts runs through it. Narrow terraces and light industrial premises sit alongside car repair yards and wholesale warehouses. Bordesley Junction, where canal channels split, and the Camp Hill railway line, carried on a series of arched viaducts, are visible reminders of the neighbourhood’s transport history.

Local life is organised along a few main roads with small shops, takeaways and community venues serving nearby households. Former workshops have been converted to housing in some spots while long‑established businesses operate in unit estates elsewhere. Public transport follows road and rail corridors that cross the area rather than gather around a single centre. The pattern of short streets, back alleys and canalside pathways gives Bordesley a closely knit urban layout shaped by its industrial past.
