Old Hill is an area of Rowley Regis in the metropolitan borough of Sandwell in the West Midlands, England, situated around 2 miles (3.2 km) north of Halesowen and 2.5 miles (4.0 km) south of Dudley. Initially a separate village it is now part of the much larger West Midlands conurbation.

Haden Hill is a residential area in the West Midlands of England, straddling the border of Halesowen and Cradley Heath townships and the modern boroughs of Dudley and Sandwell. Its most famous landmarks are Haden Hill Park and the historic Haden Hill House, both of which were constructed during the 19th century. The River Stour flows through Haden Hill, and formed the historic county boundary of Staffordshire (Cradley Heath) and Shropshire (Halesowen). The Halesowen side of the river later became part of Worcestershire, and in 1966 all of Haden Hill was moved into Worcestershire when the Staffordshire side of the river (originally in Rowley Regis Borough) became part of Warley County Borough. Since 1974, all of Haden Hill has existed within the West Midlands county, though it is still split over two different local authorities, with Halesowen now being part of the Metropolitan Borough of Dudley and Cradley Heath being part of the Metropolitan Borough of Sandwell. The busy A459 road between Halesowen and Dudley passes through Haden Hill, and gives the area bus links with Merry Hill Shopping Centre, Dudley, Netherton, Halesowen and Birmingham. The British songwriter Owen Tromans grew up in Haden Hill and his 2013 release For Haden features songs that refer to the area. The inner sleeve features a mythologised representation of Haden Hill.

Cradley () is a village in the Black Country and Metropolitan Borough of Dudley near Halesowen and the banks of the River Stour. Colley Gate is the name of the short road in the centre of Cradley. It was part of the ancient parish of Halesowen, but unlike much of the rest of that parish, which was an exclave of Shropshire, Cradley was always in Worcestershire, until the creation of the West Midlands county in 1974. This meant that for civil administrative purposes, Cradley formerly had the officers which a parish would have had. The population of the appropriate Dudley Ward (Cradley and Wollescote) taken at the 2011 census was 13,340.There are two villages named Cradley in the Midlands of England although the names are pronounced differently; the "other" Cradley lies about 30 miles to the southwest, near to the Malvern Hills in south Worcestershire, but just across the county boundary in Herefordshire. In the 19th century a new settlement grew up in heathland on the other side of the river and became known as Cradley Heath. This was in the ancient parish of Rowley Regis. Previously the residents of Cradley had the right to graze their animals on that heath, subject to a small annual payment to the lord of the manor.
