About

Cadley ward is situated in the southern part of the city of Preston, positioned between the A6 London Road corridor and the River Ribble. The area is primarily residential, characterised by a mix of housing types from interwar semis to more modern estates. It contains several local schools and community facilities, with open spaces like Haslam Park providing green areas for recreation. The ward functions as a settled residential suburb with direct access to main transport routes into the city centre.

A notable local feature is the presence of the former Preston Greyhound Stadium site on Blackpool Road, which has been a subject of redevelopment discussions. The ward's boundary runs close to the Ribble, offering some proximity to the river's paths. Daily life here is supported by local parades of shops and services along Cadley Causeway and other minor roads, catering to everyday needs within the community.
