About

Northwick is a northern suburb of Worcester, situated on the opposite bank of the River Severn from the city centre. The area is primarily residential, characterised by a mix of housing from different periods, including post-war estates and more modern developments. It functions as a practical residential zone with local shops and schools serving the community, offering a quieter alternative to the busier urban core.

The area is defined by its proximity to the river and open spaces like Northwick Park. The Worcester and Birmingham Canal runs through the area, with paths along its towpath providing routes for walking and cycling into the city. The presence of several large retail parks and business units on its periphery, such as those near the Shrub Hill industrial area, adds a significant commercial and employment dimension to the district.
