About

New Cheltenham is a residential ward situated on the eastern edge of Bristol, forming part of the Kingswood urban area. The housing is primarily a mix of interwar and post-war semi-detached and terraced homes, with some more recent developments. It is a largely residential community with local shopping parades providing essential services. The area is well-connected by several major roads, including the A420 and A4174 ring road, linking it to Bristol and wider South Gloucestershire.
