About

Wollaton West is a residential ward situated in the southwestern part of the city of Nottingham. The area is primarily characterised by suburban housing, ranging from inter-war semis to larger detached properties. It is bordered by Wollaton Park to the east and the open fields leading towards Bramcote to the west. The local road network connects it directly to the University of Nottingham campus and the city centre.
