Cadley is a largely residential suburban area of Preston, Lancashire and an electoral ward. It is nowadays usually considered to be a district of the larger suburb of Fulwood (and formed part of the pre-1974 Fulwood Urban District), but was historically separate as evidenced, for instance, in the name of Fulwood and Cadley County Primary School.
Cadley is a district of Preston positioned to the north of the city centre, with two main A-roads to its east and west; Woodplumpton Road to its west, Black Bull Lane to its east. The West Coast Main Line runs through the area, although its major transport links are served by the local and national bus routes criss-crossing its boundaries. The ward of Cadley is a two-member electoral division, returning two councillors to Town Hall. With the neighbouring Greyfriars ward, it forms the Preston North division of Lancashire County Council.
At the 2001 census, the population of Cadley was 4,698, with over 85% regarding themselves as Christian [1]. As the most recent elections in Cadley, in 2006, the total valid electorate was 3,746[2], whilst the elections in 2008 have an electorate of 3,778 [3].
