Broad Green (ward)

Broad Green (ward)

Broad Green is a ward in the London Borough of Croydon, corresponding roughly to the West Croydon area of London in the United Kingdom. The much smaller area known as Broad Green is divided between this ward and the neighbouring ward of Selhurst. Broad Green extends from central Croydon to the south to the border with the London Boroughs of Sutton and Merton by Mitcham Common. The ward includes part of the retail core of Croydon and the northern part of the Purley Way retail area.

Most of Broad Green ward currently forms part of the Croydon North constituency, which is the Labour Party's safest seat in London, with Malcolm Wicks as Member of Parliament. Until the next general election, a small part to the south of West Croydon railway station is in the marginal Croydon Central.

The ward returns three councillors every four years to the Croydon Council. At the Croydon Council election, 2006, Stuart Collins, Mike Selva, and Manju Shahul-Hameed were elected to the council. All of them were running as Labour Party candidates.
