About

Glenholt and Widewell sit on the northern edge of Plymouth and are primarily residential, with a mix of housing built across mid- and late-20th century development. The area is served by local bus routes and small shopping parades along Widewell Road and Glenholt Road, and there are primary schools serving the neighbourhood, including Glenholt and Widewell primaries. Community halls and churches provide regular activities and local groups, while convenience stores and a few takeaways meet daily needs.

Green pockets, playing fields and a network of footpaths link the streets, giving short walking routes between housing areas and local open space. Several streets end in small courts and crescents, which keeps through traffic low on many routes. From the higher streets in Glenholt there are partial views back toward the city, and the layout of paths and minor lanes makes the area straightforward for local walking and short cycles.
