Executive Summary Belgrave was traditionally a mining village sitting in Warwickshire, but developed heavily from around 1960’s onwards along with other villages of Tamworth. A huge impact was felt and continuous growth has been absorbed. In 1961 the population of Tamworth (with newly included Wilnecote) was between 17,000 – 20,000. Tamworth has nearly quadrupled in size since then with around 75,000 residents. The 2001 Census showed the total population of Belgrave locality working area was 4,490 persons within 1,616 households. The Mid Year Estimates suggested this to be around 4,590 persons in 2007, indicating an increase of just over 2%. Belgrave experienced a decrease of 15.7% in the number of children since 2001 which is greater than both Tamworth (-9.0%) and Staffordshire (-7.2%) figures.
