About

Cradley North & Wollescote is a residential and industrial ward in the northwest of the Dudley borough. The area is defined by its historic links to metalworking, with many older terraced houses built for the workforce of local foundries and chain-making workshops. The landscape is characterised by steep hills and wooded valleys, such as those around the Cradley Brook, which shape the neighbourhoods.

The ward includes the distinct communities of Cradley and Wollescote, each with their own local high street and amenities. A notable feature is the former Stuart Crystal glassworks site in Wordsley, which reflects a later phase of local manufacturing. Open spaces like Buffery Park and the network of footpaths along the brook provide green respite within the largely built-up area.
