About

Russell's Hall is a residential suburb situated to the southeast of Dudley town centre, primarily composed of post-war housing estates and modern developments. The area is anchored by the large Russell's Hall Hospital, a major acute facility serving the wider borough, which defines much of the local infrastructure. Housing includes a mix of semi-detached homes, terraces, and some newer apartment complexes, with several local schools and convenience retail parades serving the community.

The landscape is characterised by gentle slopes and numerous green spaces, with the Sheepwash Urban Park and Local Nature Reserve providing a significant area of woodland and wetland. This reserve, with its walking paths and pond system, is a notable natural feature within the suburban setting. Transport links are straightforward, with main roads connecting to Dudley and neighbouring Halesowen, while the surrounding areas remain predominantly residential in character.
