Hateley Heath is a residential neighbourhood in the borough of Sandwell, on the edge of West Bromwich in the West Midlands. Largely developed on former heathland in the post‑war decades, it sits within the industrial landscape of the Black Country and benefits from good road and bus links into town and to the wider motorway network such as the M5 and A41.
The area is made up of mixed council and private housing with local shops, schools and community centres; it has seen waves of regeneration and active community projects aimed at tackling social and economic challenges. Its history is shaped by nearby industry and mining, while nearby green spaces and canal corridors give residents visible reminders of both its industrial past and pockets of local nature.
