Brockworth East is an electoral ward in the borough of Tewkesbury, in Gloucestershire, England, forming the eastern part of the large village of Brockworth. It has a suburban feel with stretches of post‑war and more recent housing, local shops and schools, and patches of greenbelt and playing fields that give residents easy access to countryside while remaining well placed for commuting into Gloucester and Cheltenham.
The area sits close to the former airfield now used as Gloucestershire Airport, and the community still reflects that aviation heritage dating back to the Gloster aircraft works nearby; the wider locality is also famous for the annual Cooper’s Hill cheese‑rolling event on Cooper’s Hill. Local life is focused on family amenities, community groups and a mix of small businesses, with the ward balancing historic links and a largely residential, commuter‑oriented economy.
