About the area

Broadstone at a glance

Broadstone grew up as a Victorian railway suburb and still has a village feel, centred on The Broadway with its independent shops, cafés and everyday amenities. The naturalist Alfred Russel Wallace lived here late in life. Parts of the older area are protected by conservation areas.

Green space is a big draw. Broadstone Heath and large recreation grounds are close to home, the Castleman Trailway runs through the village along the old railway line, and Broadstone Golf Club is one of the best-known heathland courses in the county. The Junction Sports and Leisure Centre is also on hand.
