  • Sparkbrook and Small Heath
    The Birmingham Plan BIRMINGHAM UNITARY DEVELOPMENT PLAN 2005 (incorporating Alterations approved by the City Council for adoption on 11 October 2005) CHAPTER 17 - SPARKBROOK AND SMALL HEATH General Character 17.1 The Sparkbrook and Small Heath Constituency extends south-eastwards from the City Centre to Hall Green and Moseley. Edgbaston lies to the west of the Constituency and Solihull Metropolitan Borough forms the eastern boundary. The Highgate district lies within the Ring Road and is, therefore, dealt with in the City Centre Statement. The Constituency had a population of around [77,000] 107,000 in [1987] 1991, including a large ethnic minority community. Key statistics relating to the Constituency are included in the table at the end of this chapter. 17.2 A number of roads which serve the Constituency fall within the strategic highway network; these are: • Small Heath [By-Pass,] Highway which forms part of the A45 link between the City Centre and the National Exhibition Centre and Birmingham International Airport. • Warwick Road (A41) linking the City Centre with Solihull and the M42. • Moseley Road (A435) which links with Redditch and the M42. • Stratford Road (A34) which is a major southern entry point to the City. • The Outer Orbital Route (A4040). In addition, it is served by the Birmingham to Leamington Spa and North Warwickshire railway lines. 17.3 The major land use in the Constituency is residential and comprises a wide range of housing types. There are areas of pre-1919 terraced housing, which have been the focus of extensive urban renewal activity, [extend on] in Small Heath, Sparkhill and Sparkbrook either side of Stratford Road, with areas of more prosperous housing in Moseley and Acocks Green.
