About

Northway ward lies on the northeastern edge of Tewkesbury, bordered by the M5 motorway and the rural landscape of Gloucestershire. The area is primarily residential, with housing developments ranging from post-war estates to more modern builds. It functions as a commuter settlement, with local amenities centred along Northway Lane and the nearby Wheatpieces neighbourhood. The ward includes areas of open space and playing fields, providing recreational areas for residents.

A notable local feature is the presence of the historic Northway Farm, which anchors the area's more rural past. The ward contains the Northway Primary and Infant School, serving the community. Proximity to the motorway junction offers direct road links, while the surrounding land is largely given over to agriculture, defining its edge. The residential streets are quiet, with the community focus being on local schools and parks.
