〔 Sneyd Green (population: 7,220 – 2001 Census) is an area in the city of Stoke-on-Trent in Staffordshire, England. It is in the north-east of the city, approx. from Hanley. Sneyd Green borders Smallthorne in the north, Milton in the east, Birches Head in the south, and Cobridge in the west. Most of Sneyd Green falls within Stoke-on-Trent North, the remainder is in Stoke Central. For local government purposes the greater part of Sneyd Green is in the East Valley electoral ward. Those parts not in East Valley are split between 'Northwood & Birches Head' and 'Burslem South'. That part of Sneyd Green that falls within Burslem South is sometimes referred to as 'Old Sneyd Green'. There are twenty wards in the City, each with a population of around 12,000 people and each returning three elected councillors to the Council chamber. In addition to the City's electoral wards there are 49 'neighbourhood areas' of which Sneyd Green is one. These neighbourhood areas, a recent attempt by the Council to better describe the geography of the City, have been adopted by the Stoke-on-Trent Local Strategic Partnership and form the basis of the new Local Area Agreements. ==Community Profile and Facilities== Despite having a sizeable council estate, Sneyd Green only has an average number of council tenants for a neighbourhood in Leek. Also, Sneyd Green has a significantly below average proportion of residents in terraced housing.〔2001 Census;〕 According to the Council's 'Neighbourhood Area Profile', Sneyd Green is "typified by privately owned semi-detached housing and pockets of semi-detached council-housing".〔Stoke-on-Trent City Council's Neighbourhood Area Profile (July 2006);〕 Predictably, the average gross household income of Sneyd Green residents is higher than the City's average〔CACI Ltd;〕 and the crime rate is below the City average.〔Staffordshire Police, Stoke on Trent Division;〕 The hub of the community is around the crossroad junction of Hanley Road (B5049), Milton Road and Sneyd Street. Here can be found: a busy ‘Late Shop’ convenience store (A Consumers' cooperative), a doctor's surgery – now closed, a dentist, a chemist, a sub-post office, a small number of other shops, a Chinese take-away, and an Oatcake shop. Sneyd Green's community hall on Noblett Road was one of only twelve council-owned, community-run halls in the city. Today, many of these Halls, including Sneyd Green's, are social enterprises owned by a local Trust. The Holden Lane Residents Association is one of a sizeable number of voluntary bodies that utilise the hall's facilities. Sneyd Green has two primary schools (Holden Lane and Sneyd Green), a large secondary school (Excel Academy) and two churches (St. Andrews Church of England Parish and Wesley Hall Methodist Church on Noblett Road). There are two public houses in Sneyd Green (the Berwick and the Sneyd Arms – a third, the Holden Bridge being recently demolished) and a Workingmen's Club (Holden Lane WMC on Ralph Drive – member of the Working Men's Club and Institute Union ). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Sneyd Green」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
