Brandwood End

About

Brandwood End sits in the south of Birmingham, characterised by suburban residential streets and green spaces. The area is anchored by the large Brandwood End Cemetery and Crematorium, which provides a significant expanse of wooded, quiet ground. Housing primarily consists of interwar and post-war semi-detached and detached homes, offering a settled, established atmosphere. The local centre along Alcester Road South hosts essential shops and services for daily needs.

A notable local landmark is the Brandwood Tunnel, a preserved, disused railway tunnel now managed as a bat habitat. The area is bordered by the extensive grounds of the University of Birmingham's veterinary school. Brandwood Park and the nearby Chadwick Manor offer additional recreational space, with walking paths through more wooded areas. It functions as a quiet residential district with a distinct connection to its surrounding natural and historical features.
