Cradley Heath
Cradley Heath is a village as well as ward in the Rowley Regis location of the district of Sandwell, West Midlands, England. It lies within the Black Country, concerning 2 1/2 miles (4.0 km) south of Dudley and also 8 miles (13 km) west of central Birmingham. Cradley Heath is typically confused with adjoining Cradley in Halesowen, although both places have actually long been in different neighborhood authorities, as well as up until 1966 remained in separate regions. Cradley Heath is just one of several communities in main England still recognisable from their early 20th-century appearance. A number of the shops and homes in the High Street are still standing after 100 years, though some were demolished in the mid-2000s to give way for a bypass, to ease blockage in the community centre.
