About

Redditch Town Centre is a modern retail and commercial hub, anchored by the Kingfisher Shopping Centre. The area's layout, with its network of pedestrianised walkways and underpasses, reflects its post-war New Town design. This central zone provides essential services, council offices, and a bus station, functioning as the primary administrative and shopping destination for the wider borough.

Adjacent to the south lies Abbeydale, a primarily residential district characterised by estates of terraced and semi-detached homes from the mid-20th century. The area is bordered by the Arrow Valley Country Park, offering extensive green space with lakes and walking paths. A local landmark is the Abbey Stadium, home to Redditch United Football Club, which sits near the historic but largely obscured course of the River Arrow.
