About

Bulwell North is a ward in the City of Nottingham, situated to the north of the city centre. The area centres on a market place and a cluster of local shops and services that serve surrounding streets. The River Leen runs through Bulwell and feeds Bulwell Bogs Local Nature Reserve, a stretch of wetland and green space preserved amid residential streets. Community facilities include a secondary school and a number of community halls that host local events and groups.

Housing in Bulwell North ranges from older terraces to post-war estates, laid out around tree-lined roads and short shopping parades. Public transport is based mainly on frequent bus services into Nottingham and connections to neighbouring suburbs. Local history shows in street names and in converted buildings whose uses have changed over time. Day-to-day life in the ward is shaped by small businesses, the market, and the green corridor along the River Leen that provides a clear contrast to the built environment.
