More about Blackheath West Midlands
Blackheath is a town in England's Black Country, part
of the metropolitan borough of Sandwell.
Before 1841 Bleak Heath or Blake Heath was a small group
of farm houses and inns on the turnpike road from
Oldbury to Halesowen, within Rowley Regis. The changes
brought about by the industrial revolution led to a
Private Act in June that year that allowed the sale of
the Rowley Regis glebe lands in order to finance the
building of a new vicarage.
The land was purchased by developers who, throughout the
remainder of the 19th century, expanded Blackheath as a
dormitory town for the surrounding industries, in
particular, the coal mine at Coombes Wood and the
Hailstone quarry. Workers migrated to Blackheath from
across England and particularly from Wales until the
town and its neighbours grew to form the existing
conurbation with nearby Birmingham.
The parish of St Paul was established in 1865 as a
distinct entity from that of Rowley Regis and the new
church consecrated in 1869. There has also been a long
tradition of nonconformism with many Methodist and
Baptist chapels.
A market was established and an extension of the Great
Western Railway linking Birmingham and Worcester opened
a station in the town in 1867.
Into the 20th century, manufacturing grew and extractive
industries declined with the last coal mine closing in
1919. Major employers were the fasteners business at the
Excelsior Works of Thomas William Lench and the
electrical engineering business of British
Thomson-Houston (BTH). Manufacturing remained the main
source of income up to the start of the 21st century
with the BTH works still in operation though in the
intervening years it has worked under the successive
names of AEI, GEC, GEC-ALSTHOM, Hawker-Siddeley, BTR and
Electrodrives.
Blackheath was part of the borough of Rowley Regis until
1966, when it became part of the county borough of
Warley. Since 1974 it was formed part of the
metropolitan borough of Sandwell.
Blackheath has always been a predominately working class
area dominated by modest housing. The town was hard hit
by the economic slow-down of the 1970s and unemployment
of the early 1980s. However, in the 1990s the town
became more prosperous with improving housing stock and
some substantial development in town centre stores and
improvement in the road network.
Blackheath has many transport links with buses
travelling throughout the borough and a train station
nearby.
Football team Blackheath Town F.C. play in the West
Midlands (Regional) League Division One (South).
Blackheath is home to Judas Priest guitarist Glenn
Tipton.
Blackheath nowadays is expanding by having new
buildings/shops and roads.
Developers have purchased the former 'Excelsior Works'
site, building one, two and three bedroomed houses and
new homes are also being built on the site of former
Blackheath Primary School.
