Yardley Wood is an area of Birmingham, United Kingdom, covering the easternmost quadrant of postcode area B14 (as well as Priory Road and adjacent streets up to the city boundary), and is located across the wards of Billesley and Highter's Heath in the south of the city.
To the west the area is contiguous with Warstock. Other nearby settlements include Billesley, Highter's Heath, Hall Green, Solihull Lodge and Kings Heath.
Yardley Wood is remote from the Birmingham suburb of Yardley which is located to the east of the city, although historically (prior to the 1911 Greater Birmingham Act) they were both in Yardley Rural District and hence lay within Worcestershire.[1]
