About

Romsey Tadburn ward lies on the northern outskirts of the town of Romsey, within the Test Valley district. The area is primarily residential, featuring a mix of housing developments from different periods. It is bordered by the River Test to the west and includes local amenities such as supermarkets and schools that serve the community. The ward contains significant green spaces, including the Tadburn Lakes and playing fields, which provide recreational areas.

The geography is defined by the Tadburn stream, a chalk stream that feeds into the River Test and shapes the local landscape. This watercourse supports specific wetland habitats within the urban setting. The ward functions largely as a commuter area, with good road links to Southampton and the M27 motorway. Its layout reflects planned expansion from the latter half of the 20th century, creating a distinct suburban character separate from Romsey's historic centre.
