About

Kendray is an electoral ward in the Metropolitan Borough of Barnsley, South Yorkshire, located to the east of Barnsley town centre. The area is primarily residential, with a mix of council-built terraces and later private housing laid out through the 20th century. Local provision includes a primary school, a community centre, a health centre and a small parade of shops, and regular bus services connect Kendray with the town centre. One recognisable local marker is the long ribbon of playing fields and allotments that runs alongside some of the estate streets, used for football and community plots.

Community activity in Kendray focuses on everyday services and local groups rather than tourism. There have been phased housing improvements and small-scale investment in community facilities in recent years, aimed at bettering energy efficiency and public space. Walks around the estate follow straight residential streets interspersed with small greens and play areas, and most daily needs are met within the ward or by a short journey into Barnsley.
