Lye & Stourbridge North sits on the edge of Dudley borough in the West Midlands, taking in the bustling high street of Lye and the northern fringes of Stourbridge. It has deep industrial roots - former chain- and metal-working trades and links to the region's famous glassmaking - and today is a mix of Victorian terraces, post-war housing and local shops that still give it a recognisably Midlands high-street feel.
The ward benefits from decent transport links towards Stourbridge Junction and the wider Black Country, and supports a lively community scene of small businesses, community centres and occasional regeneration projects aimed at improving shopping streets and public spaces as the area moves from an industrial past towards a more service-led present.
