About

Muscliff & Strouden Park is a residential ward situated in the northern part of the Bournemouth conurbation. The area is characterised by a mix of post-war housing estates and more recent developments, providing a range of private and social housing. Its layout is defined by several main roads that facilitate travel towards Bournemouth town centre and the neighbouring districts of Winton and Charminster. The ward includes the grounds of the former Bournemouth Airport, with some land now repurposed for community and leisure use.

The area contains significant green spaces, including Muscliff Park and the playing fields at Strouden Park, which serve as local recreational hubs. A notable local feature is the presence of the Royal Bournemouth Hospital, a major employer and healthcare facility located just within the ward's southern boundary. Residential life centres around local schools, shops, and community facilities, creating a self-contained suburban environment distinct from the coastal tourist areas.
