About

Lyndon ward sits in the northern part of the Solihull borough, characterised by extensive residential suburbs and significant green corridors. The area is defined by neighbourhoods like Olton and Lyndon End, featuring a mix of interwar, postwar, and more modern housing. It is bordered by major transport routes, including the A45 Coventry Road and the railway line, which connect it to both Solihull centre and Birmingham.

A notable large-scale feature is the presence of the River Cole and its associated valley, which forms a substantial green belt through the ward. This natural corridor includes walking paths and local nature reserves, contrasting with the built-up residential zones. The ward also contains several large secondary schools and is adjacent to the Land Rover manufacturing plant at Lode Lane, a major local employer.
