Map of the UK

Charlton & Cribbs is a mixed suburban and commercial ward on the northern edge of Bristol within South Gloucestershire, centred around the large retail and leisure area at Cribbs Causeway and the adjacent residential development of Charlton Hayes. Its landscape is shaped by major road links, sitting close to the junctions of the M5 and M4 via the Almondsbury Interchange, with a mix of retail parks, light industrial units and patches of green space that hint at the area's agricultural past.

The ward's economy is dominated by retail, hospitality and logistics thanks to attractions such as The Mall at Cribbs Causeway and several out-of-town shopping parks, while ongoing redevelopment of the nearby Filton Airfield area promises further housing and jobs. Socially it is a commuter-heavy, family-oriented community with new estates, community facilities and leisure amenities, but growth has also brought familiar local challenges around traffic and infrastructure capacity.
