About

Hawbush is a residential neighbourhood situated in the south-eastern part of the Dudley borough. The area is characterised by its housing, which primarily consists of interwar and post-war semi-detached and terraced homes. It is bordered by the larger districts of Netherton and Woodside, with local amenities centred along Hawbush Road.

The landscape is shaped by its position on the edge of the industrial Black Country, with subtle slopes and former quarry sites now integrated into the urban fabric.
