About

Park ward sits in the southern part of Cheltenham, encompassing a residential area that transitions from Victorian terraces near the town centre to more modern housing estates further out. The ward is defined by key routes like Hales Road and Tewkesbury Road, which connect it to the rest of the town. Its proximity to the A4019 provides direct access towards Gloucester, making it a practical base for commuting.

The area is primarily residential, with local shopping parades serving the community's daily needs. A notable feature is the presence of the Park Campus of the University of Gloucestershire, which brings a student population to the southern edges of the ward. Green space is provided by local parks and playing fields, including the grounds around the Prince of Wales Stadium, a dedicated athletics facility.
