About

Walsgrave and Woodway Park sit on the north-east edge of Coventry around the River Sowe. The University Hospital Coventry and Warwickshire occupies a large site on Clifford Bridge Road and is a local focal point for services and bus routes. Streets around Walsgrave combine mid-20th-century housing with later developments; small parades of shops, primary schools and community centres serve day-to-day needs. Woodway Lane runs through the neighbourhood and gives its name to the adjacent Woodway Park estate, where light industrial units and workshops sit beside residential streets.

Green corridors follow the Sowe and provide continuous walking routes between housing and the hospital precinct, with surfaced paths used by people commuting on foot or by bike. Public transport links run from Walsgrave toward the city centre and surrounding suburbs, and local planning has mixed housing, retail and employment uses within short distances. The result is an area where hospital, local industry and riverside paths form the everyday framework for residents.
