The Nedge

About

The Nedge ward is located in the southern part of Telford, situated between the older settlements of Dawley and Madeley. Its residential areas are characterised by a mix of post-war and more modern housing developments, serving as a primarily suburban community. The ward includes local amenities such as schools and shopping parades that cater to daily needs. A significant green corridor runs through the area, following the route of the now-defunct Shropshire Canal, providing a linear park and walking route for residents.

The landscape is shaped by its industrial past, with subtle reminders integrated into the environment. The ward's layout and green spaces are directly influenced by historical mining and transportation infrastructure. This creates a distinct blend of residential living within a setting marked by reclaimed land. The area functions as a quiet residential district with convenient road links to Telford town centre and the wider road network, emphasising its role as a commuter base within the larger borough.
