About

The Rows ward covers a residential area on the eastern side of Haverhill, a town in West Suffolk. It is primarily composed of housing estates built from the mid-20th century onwards, providing homes for a significant portion of the town's population. The layout is characterised by numerous cul-de-sacs and avenues, with green spaces interspersed throughout the neighbourhood. Local amenities include several primary schools and convenience retail outlets serving the immediate community.

The area's geography includes a gentle slope towards the east. A notable feature is the presence of the Kedington parish boundary, which runs through the ward, marking a historical administrative division within the modern urban layout. Recreation is supported by parks and sports fields, including a large area of playing fields near the ward's centre. Public transport connections provide links to Haverhill town centre and beyond.
