Ward in Birmingham, England

OS grid ref:SP 08 82
Dialling code: 0121 (Birmingham)

Moseley (electoral ward) sits in the southern suburbs of Birmingham, England, and is centred on the well‑known village high street with Victorian red‑brick houses, a lively independent retail and café scene, and a reputation for live music – the Hare & Hounds pub is a long‑standing local venue. The ward grew as a middle‑class Victorian suburb and today combines period architecture with a creative, bohemian feel that has attracted professionals and students alike.

Green space is a defining feature: the ward includes or borders natural areas such as Moseley Bog and is close to Cannon Hill Park, while events like the annual Moseley Festival underline a strong local arts and community culture. Economically the area leans towards independent traders and higher‑than‑average house prices for the city, and socially it’s known for active neighbourhood groups and a diverse, outward‑looking community.
