Location The general character of Obelisk Road and Old Woolston is suburban with traces of the former rural settlement that gave it its special character in the past. Developed from a small rural settlement into substantial residential suburb, Woolston now benefits from an outstanding selection of local shops, amenities and cafés including a Lidl Supermarket (0.1 miles), Greggs Outlet (0.2 miles), Superdrug (0.2 miles). Exceptional schools are nearby including the Woolston Infant School (0.2 miles), Weston Park Primary School (0.8 miles) and the St. Patricks Catholic School (0.5 miles) which has been rated 'Good' by Ofsted.
