About

Longford sits to the north of Coventry city centre. The area combines residential streets and light industrial estates, with Longford Road running through its centre and a parade of local shops, a primary school and a community hall close by. Rows of 19th-century terraced houses stand near former factory sites, reflecting Coventry’s manufacturing past, while interwar and post-war housing connects to later council estates. Bus services provide direct links to the city centre and suburbs, and small green spaces and playgrounds are scattered between housing areas.

On Longford’s edge an industrial corridor contains workshops, small engineering units and distribution yards that operate alongside quieter residential streets. Community groups use the hall and parks for regular activities, and local shops serve daily needs. The proximity of terraces, later housing and working yards can be seen within a short walk, giving Longford a working-urban character with practical local services close to home.
