About

Kitts Green is a residential area in east Birmingham centred on Kitts Green Road. The neighbourhood mixes terrace streets, semi‑detached houses and later council estates. Local provision includes a parade of shops, a primary school, a community centre and playing fields, so most daily needs are met within the area. Small local businesses and light industrial units sit close to the main road and rail corridor, while bus services link the area with the city centre and other parts of Birmingham.

The place name survives in a triangular patch of grass beside the main road that still functions as a local meeting point and reference for addresses. Community projects and sports clubs use the playing fields and hall, and several allotment sites provide space for growing. Housing development reflects phases of the 20th century, so street patterns and building types change across short distances, giving the area a layered character.
