Info on Tamworth in Staffordshire Please.....

[nutcracker]

Possible housing exchange in Glascote in Tamworth.

Dp's reaction was 'sod off i'm not living there', but he has always been against Tamworth because his ex had an affair with a bloke from there.

Any way any info good or bad please.

No one. Well if there are no mumsnetters living there then i couldn't possibly

Nice park nutty - have you been to the castle gardens...?

dont htink its bad at all

had a friend who went to teach secondary there - liked it

Nope i haven't Coddy.
I used to go to Tamworth with a friend when i was younger, but can't really remember what it's like.
I've been on up my street but with it being council, the reports are never very good.

I know that there are some dodgy parts too.

It's a 4 bed house though, so i feel i should at least consider it and try to find out more.

Nutty - as a place it is fantastic the park and castle grounds are just fantastic - and the retail park well i'll say no more.

Sorry don't know about any houses there

Have you been offered a house there???

Ronniebaby may be able to help you nutty, why dont you contact her Im sure she wouldnt mind

One of my Aunties lives there (on a council estate) and she likes it, cant vouch for it myself though

message withdrawn

I live in Sutton Coldfield at the mo, but am desperate to move as very overcrowded and very noisy neighbours.

I am registered on a home swap website for council and H/A tennants and this advert came up as someone wanting a 2 bed flat in my area.

I'm hoping to persuade dp to go and have a look today as he's skiving off work again.
It's a 4 bed house so would be ideal for us.

Nutty, I live in Tamworth.

Contact me I'll tell you what you wanna know.

Ronnie i've replied to your email.

Looks like it's a no go, not very nice.

my mom lives there its very nice

Nutty - Glasgote isn't that nice, but where I live is ace and on my estate they have council and housing assoc housing too.

You should see if you could get something there, right by the river too and only a mile from Town and Shops

Glascote even

Which area is that Ronnie.

Funnily enough i found a website the other day showing homes that are being built in Tamworth for a H/A, but i can't apply i have to be nominated. The last time i was nominated they said NO because the list was too full

I could apply to Tamworth council though i think.
