Map of the UK

Northway sits on the northern edge of Tewkesbury in Gloucestershire, England. It is primarily a suburban, residential ward made up of mixed private and former council housing developed through the 20th century, with local green spaces and straightforward road links to the M5 and A38 that make commuting into nearby centres such as Gloucester and Cheltenham convenient.

The area has a modest parade of shops, schools and community facilities that give it a family‑orientated feel, while nearby business parks and light industry provide local employment. Its growth is part of the post‑war expansion around the medieval core of Tewkesbury, so Northway tends to feel practical and community‑centred rather than historic, with a mix of long‑standing residents and newer arrivals.
