About

Leckhampton sits on the southern edge of Cheltenham, characterised by residential streets that transition towards the open countryside of the Cotswolds. The area is primarily composed of Victorian and Edwardian housing, alongside more modern developments, serving as a quiet suburb for families and professionals. Its elevated position provides clear views towards the town centre and the hills beyond, defining its semi-rural atmosphere.

A defining landmark is the prominent Leckhampton Hill, with its historic quarry and the isolated rock pillar known as the Devil's Chimney. This area of common land is crisscrossed with footpaths leading through woodland and limestone grassland, a local resource for walking and recreation. The hill's industrial past and natural history are integral to the area's identity, separating it from the more formal Regency terraces of central Cheltenham.
