Location - Cradley Heath lies to the North of Halesowen and falls within the boundaries of Sandwell Borough Council. As the name suggests it was originally Heathland between Cradley, Netherton and Old Hill. During the early 19th century a number of cottages were built encroaching onto the heath along the banks of the River Stour, mainly occupied by home industries such as nail making. During the industrial revolution Cradley Heath developed and became famous not only for nails but was once known as the world centre of chain making. It was the birthplace for the Black Country Bugle and is thought to be the historic home of the Staffordshire Bull Terrier. In fact you would be hard pushed to find anywhere more Black Country than Cradley Heath. Cradley Heath is great place for first time buyers on a limited budget and offers some fantastic opportunity for starter homes. It also retains some of the finest examples of grander Victorian Homes in street such as Sydney Road, which has been used by the BBC for filming Peaky Blinders.

Cradley Heath retains a very traditional High Street with not one but two market halls with a large Tesco in the centre. It has its own Train Station which provides links to Birmingham and to Worcester, alongside a bus interchange just outside to station. It is only a few minutes' drive from the large Merry Hill shopping centre. Close by is Haden Hill Park, a historical Victorian landscape with a Victorian Mansion and Tudor Hall. The landscape offers stunning views of the surrounding area. The park is a popular venue for historical local events and environmental activities. It has children's play areas, bowling greens, ornamental lakes and formal garden areas. It is also said that the hall is haunted.

Market leading independent estate and letting agents finding your dream homes in the South-West Birmingham and North Worcestershire areas. Halesowen lies approximately 7 miles from Birmingham city centre and is just minutes away from junction 3 of the M5 motorway giving access to the greater motorway network all around the West Midlands. Our Halesowen office is located in the heart of Halesowen Town Centre. Opened in 2006, Grove Properties Group has been an outstanding success developing to become possibly the most prominent Estate Agents in Halesowen. The History of Halesowen stems back as far as the Anglo Saxons and it was listed in the Domesday Book as being larger than Birmingham. It forms part of the southern edge of the Black Country and during the industrial revolution it became synonymous with nail and screw making, an industry that still survives to a lesser extent today. Despite its proximity to the Black Country it still retains areas of beauty and Grade I listed Leasowes Park is thought to be one of the first natural landscape gardens in England. In certain areas the town is predominated by a vast array of Victorian houses but further development during the 1960s and 70s saw the building of several large housing estates. It has a number of highly sought after schools foremost of which are the Earls High School and Windsor High School. Whilst Halesowen no longer has a train station of its own, the Worcester to Birmingham line passes along the northern edge of its boundary and the stations of Cradley Heath, Old Hill and Rowley Regis are all within a few miles of the town centre. Halesowen bus station is a busy interchange and regular service runs to Birmingham city centre. The office covers a substantial area running from the Cradley Heath, Rowley Regis and Blackheath to the north and west, through the surrounding localities of Cradley, Hawne, Hasbury, Hayley Green, Lapal and Hurst Green. It also covers the outlying Worcestershire villages of Romsley and Hunnington and the bordering Birmingham fringes of Quinton, Bartley Green and Oldbury.
