About

Sidemoor is a residential area situated to the north of Bromsgrove town centre. It is primarily composed of housing estates built throughout the latter half of the 20th century, providing homes for many who work locally. The ward includes the stretch of the Birmingham Road, a key route into the town, lined with various local shops and services catering to everyday needs. Sidemoor Working Men's Club has long served as a community hub for the area.

Green spaces include Sidemoor Park, which offers recreational facilities. The area is bordered to the east by the Chadwick Manor estate and the grounds of North Bromsgrove High School. Sidemoor's layout is defined by its network of cul-de-sacs and avenues branching off main thoroughfares like Sidemoor Road. The local landscape gently slopes, with some properties offering views towards the Lickey Hills in the distance.
