About

Maldon South ward encompasses the southern residential neighbourhoods of the town, characterised by a mix of housing developments from different eras. The area is primarily residential, with local shops and services concentrated along the main routes. It includes the grounds of the Plume School and the expansive playing fields at Promenade Park, which provide green space along the River Blackwater's northern bank.

The ward's landscape is defined by its proximity to the river and the expansive marshes to the south. A network of footpaths allows access to the saltmarshes and the Hythe Quay, where a distinctive collection of historic Thames sailing barges is often moored. This creates a direct link between the residential area and Maldon's maritime heritage.
