What it is like

  • Families
  • Gardens and parking
  • Views

A 1920s garden suburb laid out in curving crescents around Hilltop Park, with views back over the river.

Houses here are larger and newer than in the centre, with gardens front and back and driveways on most streets. Two schools, a small high street and the tram terminus on Crescent Road make it a favourite with families.

Evenings are quiet, and the long views from the top of the hill are the reason many people stay for decades.

Worth knowing The walk up from the station is steep.
