Charlton Park

Charlton Park (electoral ward) is an electoral ward in Cheltenham, Gloucestershire, England that is largely residential, with a mix of Victorian and 20th‑century housing, small parades of shops and several local parks and playing fields. It benefits from being close to Cheltenham’s town centre and the rolling countryside of the Cotswolds, so it’s popular with families and commuters who want easy access to both urban amenities and rural walks.

The ward has a strong community feel, supported by local schools, clubs and neighbourhood groups, and ties into the wider cultural life of Cheltenham - from the town’s festivals to everyday market and leisure facilities. Historically it grew up from former farmland into a suburban neighbourhood, and economically residents tend to work in local services or commute to larger employers in and around Cheltenham, giving the area a relatively stable, community‑oriented character.
