About

Castle & Priory ward encompasses the historic core of Dudley town centre, dominated by the ruins of Dudley Castle atop its limestone ridge. The ward includes the adjacent Dudley Zoo and the extensive Priory Park, which contains the remains of a medieval priory. This area functions as the civic and administrative heart of the borough, containing the council buildings and a major bus station.

The landscape is defined by the castle hill and the surrounding wooded slopes. Residential areas consist primarily of Victorian and early 20th-century terraced housing, spreading out from the central commercial streets. The Black Country Geopark designation highlights the area's significant limestone caverns and industrial archaeology sites woven into the urban fabric.
