Bradley is a suburb and electoral ward of Stafford in the county of Staffordshire, England. It lies on the edge of the town and combines patches of post‑war housing and older cottages with pockets of green space, offering relatively quick access to the town centre and the River Sow that runs through Stafford.
The neighbourhood has a mainly residential character with local shops, schools and community facilities, and many people commute into Stafford or further afield via Stafford station. Historically an agricultural area - the name Bradley likely derives from Old English meaning a “broad clearing” - it today has a fairly close‑knit community feel, local sports clubs and occasional community events rather than large industrial activity.
