We're asking the council to change both the Woodlands and Tile Hill & Canley ward names following recent boundary changes which did not take into account local history or the landscape of the area.
Option 1:
(A) Woodlands – Change to Broadvale
The ward no longer contains any of the woodlands it was named after
due to recent boundary changes which have shifted them into another
ward. We recommend changing the name to reflect the landscape of
the ward which lies across a valley with Upper Eastern Green Lane
on one side and Broad Lane on the other. There is also a pub in
Mount Nod called The Vale.
(B) Tile Hill & Canley (previously Westwood) – Change
to Woodlands
We recommend changing the name to reflect the history of the
ancient Arden landscape and the various woodlands in the area. We
think it is important to keep a reference to the historical
woodlands in this part of the city. The name Westwood is also
preserved in Westwood Heath therefore we believe Woodlands is a
more suitable name for the ward.
Option 2:
(A) Woodlands – Change to Eastern Green & Tile Hill
North
The ward no longer contains any of the woodlands it was named after
due to recent boundary changes which have shifted them into another
ward. We recommend changing the name to include Eastern Green and
reflect the two different parts of Tile Hill.
(B) Tile Hill & Canley (previously Westwood) – Change
to Canley & Tile Hill South
The Boundary Commission (LGBCE) recently changed this name however
Tile Hill is actually split across two wards. We recommend changing
the name to reflect the two different parts of Tile Hill.
