Coton Green is a small housing estate north of Tamworth. Originally built from around 1970 the development contains a mix of private and council owned houses.
Along with the Riverside/Alders developments, parts of Leyfields and all of Coton Lane it forms part of the Mercian Ward.
One of the main features of Coton Green is the stunning Wigginton Park.
Wigginton park is the base for Tamworth Rugby Union Football Club.
Coton Green also has three schools: Coton Green Primary School, Lark Hall Infants School, and St. Elizabeths RC Primary School. The closest two secondary schools to Coton Green are The Rawlett School and Landau Forte Academy QEMS.
At the heart of the development is a very popular parade of shops and The Coton Arms pub.

Famous quotes containing the word green:
“With sudden roar and aged pine-tree falls,—
One crash, the death-hymn of the perfect tree,
Declares the close of its green century.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
