Hurley
-
Hurley is situated
11 miles north-east of Birmingham and its name means ‘a clearing in
the forest’.

Hurley Church is
situated at the top of a hill and is a small wooden structure. It
was built about 1860.

The Holly Bush Inn
used to have steps up to its front door and it overlooked the Bull
Ring where the village stocks were sited.

Dexter colliery was
sunk on the south side of the village in the mid 1920’s and was
demolished in 1987.

On the outskirts of
the village, where a brook flows through a spinney to the river Tame
at Kingsbury, is the site of an old paper mill.
