About

Kettlebrook is a residential area located to the west of Tamworth town centre, primarily characterised by housing estates built from the 1960s onward. The neighbourhood is bordered by the River Tame to the north, with the A51 Tamworth Road providing a main route through the southern part of the locality. The area is served by local shops and amenities concentrated along Kettlebrook Road, functioning as a practical hub for daily needs.

The landscape is largely suburban, with a mix of detached, semi-detached, and terraced homes. A significant feature is the presence of Kettlebrook Nature Reserve, a local green space that offers walking paths alongside the brook from which the area takes its name. This reserve provides a contrast to the built environment and is a focus for local recreation, with access to broader footpaths leading towards the river and surrounding fields.
