About

Hyson Green & Arboretum is a residential and park-focused ward located directly northwest of Nottingham city centre. The area is defined by its dense Victorian and Edwardian housing, with streets of terraced homes serving a significant student population and long-established communities. Its commercial heart is along Radford Road, which provides essential local shops and services. The ward's name is derived from its two most prominent features, which shape its character and geography.

The expansive Arboretum park, a formal Victorian green space with a lake, aviary, and winding paths, forms the ward's eastern boundary and is a major focal point. In contrast, Hyson Green itself is a more urban district to the west, known for its bustling market and the historic former Co-op building on Gregory Boulevard. The area is a transport hub, with major routes like the A60 and tram lines converging here, connecting it directly to the city centre and broader region.
