About

Cotteridge sits in south Birmingham along Pershore Road, built around a short shopping parade and a community hub known locally as the Cotteridge Centre. The high street contains independent shops, cafes, a library and a scattering of small businesses clustered close to the main road. Streets around the centre change quickly from retail to residential, with terraces and semi-detached houses lining tree-lined streets and small courts. Regular bus services link the area with Birmingham city centre and universities, making the high street a practical local focus for daily needs.

Green space and local groups shape life in Cotteridge: Cotteridge Park provides playing fields, a play area and sports pitches used by neighbourhood clubs, while community organisations run events and markets from the centre. Schools, places of worship and local allotments sit within short walking distance of the parade, so many errands and social activities are centred on Pershore Road. The combination of local shops, the Cotteridge Centre and accessible public transport gives the area a clearly local rhythm.
