Lansdown is a ward in Cheltenham, Gloucestershire, England, lying just north of the town centre. It contains a mix of Victorian terraces and later housing and benefits from quick access to the town’s Regency architecture and the rolling countryside of the Cotswolds.
Shaped by Cheltenham’s 19th‑century spa boom, the area today is socially mixed, with local shops, pubs and community groups alongside commuters and long‑standing residents; nearby green spaces and attractions such as Pittville Park and Cheltenham Racecourse give it a pleasant balance of urban convenience and leisure.
