About

Amblecote is a residential and industrial ward situated on the western edge of the Dudley borough, bordering the Staffordshire town of Stourbridge. The area is defined by its mix of housing, from Victorian terraces to modern estates, alongside pockets of light industry and commercial units.

A notable local landmark is the Red House Glass Cone, a preserved 18th-century glassmaking furnace that stands as a museum within a public park. This structure points to the area's historical significance in the glass industry. Much of the ward is characterised by its main thoroughfares, with local amenities and green spaces like The Leys providing recreational areas for the community.
