About

St Peters ward lies on the western edge of the town of Broadstairs, forming a largely residential suburb. The area is characterised by a mix of housing types, from Victorian terraces to modern estates, with local shopping parades serving the community. Its boundaries include the Westwood Cross retail park, a major commercial hub for the wider Thanet region, which defines its northern edge.

The landscape is generally flat, with the land sloping gently towards the coast to the east. A notable feature is the presence of the former St Peters Village, which retains a distinct historic core around St Peters Church, separate from the later suburban expansion. Recreational space is provided by parks and the proximity to the expansive Monkton Nature Reserve on its southern fringe.
