Welcome to Coombeswood

Coombeswood is a small village located in the West Midlands region of England. It is situated in the borough of Sandwell and is surrounded by the towns of Halesowen, Dudley, and Oldbury. The village is known for its beautiful countryside, which is popular with walkers and cyclists. Coombeswood is also home to a number of historic buildings, including the Grade II listed Coombeswood House.

Coombeswood has a rich history dating back to the 12th century when it was known as "Cumbeswode". The village was once a thriving mining community, with coal being extracted from the nearby mines. However, the decline of the mining industry in the 20th century led to a decline in the village's population. Today, Coombeswood is a quiet and peaceful village, with a population of around 1,500 people.

Despite its small size, Coombeswood has a strong sense of community. The village has a number of local amenities, including a post office, a convenience store, and a pub. There are also several community groups and clubs, including a gardening club and a local history society. Coombeswood is a great place to live for those who enjoy a peaceful and rural lifestyle, while still being within easy reach of the amenities of nearby towns and cities.
