About

Lichfield West & South encompasses residential neighbourhoods radiating from the historic city centre. The area is characterised by a mix of housing, from Victorian terraces near the railway station to larger post-war developments and modern estates on its southern fringes. Streets are generally quiet, with local shopping parades serving daily needs. The presence of multiple schools, including the King Edward VI School on the western edge, establishes a strong community focus for families across these suburbs.

Open green spaces like the fields around Christian Fields and the route of the Roman road provide accessible countryside. The area's landscape is subtly shaped by the Curborough Brook, which flows southward. This creates pockets of natural drainage and greenery between developments. The southern boundary is marked by the A38 road, a major transport artery separating it from more rural parishes, while maintaining easy road and rail links to Birmingham and the wider region.
