Ronkswood & Nunnery Wood

Ronkswood is a residential neighbourhood in Worcester with local shops, community facilities and a mix of housing from different periods. The area includes Ronkswood Cemetery & Crematorium and a community centre that hosts events and services used by nearby residents. The site of the former Ronkswood Hospital has been redeveloped for housing, and there are allotments and small green spaces woven through the streets. Regular bus services link Ronkswood to the city centre and other parts of Worcester, making day-to-day travel straightforward for people who work or study elsewhere in the city.

Nunnery Wood lies close by and takes its name from a wooded area that survives as a local nature reserve. The reserve provides marked paths used by pupils from Nunnery Wood High School and by local walkers, and the neighbourhood has sports facilities, primary schools and a cluster of shops serving everyday needs. Combined, Ronkswood and Nunnery Wood offer a residential setting with easy access to schooling, community amenities and green space without leaving Worcester.
