Bournville is a 19th‑century model village on the southwest side of Birmingham, founded by the Quaker Cadbury family for employees at its Cadbury's factory. Designed to be a garden village where the sale of alcohol was forbidden, it has retained a distinctive layout and community spirit. Historically part of northern Worcestershire, Bournville is now a ward within the council constituency of Selly Oak. The Cadbury's chocolate factory and the Bournville Centre for Visual Arts are notable local landmarks. Research by the Joseph Rowntree Foundation in 2003 identified Bournville as one of the nicest places to live in Britain, reflecting its desirability and quality of life within the city.
