About

Yeovil West ward encompasses a mix of residential and light industrial areas on the western side of the town. The housing is primarily composed of post-war estates, including the large Lyde ward estate, alongside some older terraced streets. The ward is bounded by the A30 and A37 roads, which define its edges and provide key transport links. Land use is functional, with several business parks and distribution centres located in the western reaches near the main roads.

The area includes significant green spaces like Yeovil Country Park, which follows the River Yeo through the ward. Recreation grounds and sports facilities serve the local communities. The ward's landscape is characterised by the river valley and the rising ground towards the west, where development gives way to more open fields. It functions largely as a residential suburb for the town centre, with local shopping parades serving daily needs.
