About

Quarry Bank is a neighbourhood in the Metropolitan Borough of Dudley, West Midlands, positioned between Brierley Hill and Stourbridge. The area is built up around a main shopping street with independent shops, takeaways and everyday services, and is served by regular bus links to nearby towns. Housing ranges from 19th-century terraces to mid-20th-century estates, with schools, a library and community halls serving local residents. Street patterns reflect gradual growth around former industrial plots rather than a single planned layout.

The area’s name reflects its origins in local stone working: an old quarry cut into the sandstone still influences road lines and property boundaries in parts of the neighbourhood, and stone retaining walls and terraces appear in several streets. Small green spaces, allotments and playing fields are scattered through the residential areas and are used for local events and sport. Local groups focus on improving community facilities and managing traffic on through routes, keeping the neighbourhood connected to the wider Dudley borough while retaining the scale of a local town centre.
