About

Edgbaston North is a mainly residential part of Edgbaston west of Birmingham city centre. Streets close to the reservoir and pockets of early 20th-century housing sit alongside small clusters of shops, schools and local services. Properties range from terraced housing to larger Victorian and Edwardian villas, with some mid-century council housing and newer infill developments. Public transport runs along the main roads, providing regular bus links into the city centre and other districts, while quieter lanes connect to community facilities and playing fields used by local clubs and schools.

The area is centred on Edgbaston Reservoir, a long-standing water body that was created in the early 19th century to feed the Birmingham Canal system and now supports a sailing club and a well-used path around its edge. The reservoir acts as a focal point for walking, birdwatching and low-key outdoor activity, with viewpoints looking across open water and reedbeds. Local planning tends to conserve the pattern of streets and green spaces that grew up around these amenities.
