DescriptionUntil 1974, Birmingham Ladywood covered a small area immediately north and west of the city centre. The constituency had one of the largest concentrations of slum housing in Britain and its electorate shrank at a rapid rate after slum clearance began in the late 1950s.

In 1974, the now tiny Ladywood constituency was merged into the far larger All Saints constituency. The name Ladywood was retained for this new constituency, in part because of the historical importance of the constituency name. Later boundary changes have meant that Birmingham Ladywood now covers almost all of central Birmingham, including Aston, Nechells and Digbeth.
