About

South Lake ward is situated in the northern part of Wokingham, bordered by the A329(M) to the west. The area is characterised by modern residential housing developments, with a mix of detached and semi-detached homes. It includes the substantial South Lake neighbourhood itself, along with parts of the older Woodley Airfield estate. Local amenities are centred around a parade of shops and a community primary school, serving the immediate residential population.

The ward's landscape is defined by its namesake, South Lake, a sizable artificial lake created from former gravel pits. This body of water and its surrounding parkland provide a focal point for recreation, with footpaths and green spaces. The area is primarily residential in character, with direct road links to Reading and the wider motorway network facilitating commuting. Housing here is generally of a more recent construction compared to other parts of the borough.
