COTTAM WARD

Cottam Ward is an expanding settlement with extensive new building development taking place. There is a developing community spirit in Cottam evidenced by the establishment of a Community Centre (an initiative by residents) and there are plans to build an ecumenical centre and small retail establishment in the area.

 

Recent City plans also incorporate improvement to public transport as part of the Orbital Bus Route around the City. Plans are in the initial stages for development on the boundaries of this now very popular residential area for a large supermarket and allied open space.

The area continues to develop and land in the area is designated for future housing development dependant upon economic circumstances. The Parish Council have recently agreed to additional funding for the local lengthsman who will undertake low level maintenance works in the open space areas in this part of the Parish

Part of the Ward is somewhat older in an area centred around Miller Green which is a green open space owned and maintained by the Parish Council and on which is situated one of the Parish Council notice boards.
