Coley

RG1 6 / RG1 7 / RG2 0

Coley is just south-west of the centre. It's a mix of older terraces, some social housing, and pockets of newer development. Coley Park was a big post-war council estate and still has that character in parts. It's affordable and close to town, which is why younger buyers and renters end up here. The Holy Brook runs through, adding a bit of green.
